Today was not only Memorial Day, it marks the first day of the 24-week countdown to the Arizona 3-Day for the Cure. Yikes!

I know you…
When you experience something major with other people, it creates a bond. You might not “know” the people who shared the experience with you, but you know them.

Contagious enthusiasm and gnarly blisters
I went to the official Training Kickoff for the Arizona 3-Day for the Cure this morning and it was amazing!

Anticlimactic
That’s the one word I can think of to describe my get together with the nattering nabobs of negativism. As dramatic as it all seemed going into this little gathering, the event itself was rather drama-free.

“I remember walking as a child. It was not customary to say you were fatigued. It was customary to complete the goal of the expedition.”

Trolls, broken shoes and cake
What do you do when you’ve beaten the trolls that live in your legs into submission and then find out your shoes are borderline thrashed? Head out for a 4-mile walk, of course!

Creature of habit
I, like many people, am a creature of habit. Like any other cat, I have my routines and when those routines are disrupted, for whatever reason, I get a little disconcerted. My routines have been disrupted for one of the best possible reasons — vacation, baby!

Nattering nabobs of negativism
I have friends who are so totally awesome, rooting for me and supporting me in every possible way. I also have the 3-Day community in my corner, which is no small thing. At the same time, there are a few “friends” who are somewhat less than encouraging.

There are no negatives, just opportunities…
OK, so this doesn’t have anything to do with breast cancer. It is not, however, irrelevant. Far from it.

60 miles walked… a few hundred to go
I have walked more than 60 miles since starting this 3-Day journey. I hit the big 6-0 yesterday. It took me five weeks — 35 days. In a little over six months, I’ll cover the same distance in just three days.
Follow/friend the fat girl!
