Walking 4 2ND Base

A friend of mine at Work, Sue is participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. The title of this post is her team name, Walking 4 2ND Base. I thought it was a very funny team name and it brings me back to my previous posts about Green M&M’s the disappearance of light brown M&Ms and ‘the bases’.

Sue sent me this message

Did you know that three million women are living with breast cancer–and one third don’t even know it? Even more startling, breast cancer kills aprox. one woman every 14 minutes, robbing us of our mothers and grandmothers, our sisters and aunts, cousins and best friends. Thirteen years ago it robbed me of my grandmother.

On May 17th and 18th I will be walking in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer. The walk is 39.3 miles through Boston. I’ve already begun training and will try to update my page weekly with my progress. My team is called Walking 4 2ND Base.

Sue also helped me out by being one of my portraits for the December Challenge.
