Hi everyone!
It is now May and in my world, that can only mean one thing: Race for the Cure!
This Saturday, I will be walking (or maybe even running!) in the Atlanta Race for the Cure. The event kicks off at 7:30AM at Atlantic Station and I will be there with my pink shoelaces on! To help me reach my fundraising goals ($100 in five days!), please visit my personal fundraising page at http://race.komenatlanta.org/goto/kscincotta. I have added the link over in the sidebar to make things easier.
As I posted below, my friend and surrogate mother Marcia recently lost her long battle with breast cancer. This year, I am walking to honor her memory. Over the years, Marcia was a strong advocate for breast cancer awareness and she worked very hard to raise money for breast cancer research. This will be the first year in a long time that she won't be doing her own Race for the Cure. She was also one of my strongest supporters in the Breast Cancer 3-Day. It is only fitting that we continue her hard work, especially on Mother's Day Weekend.
In addition to my race here in Atlanta, a team has been formed in Marcia's honor for the Central New York Race for the Cure. A link to the team page for "Marcia's Memory" can be found in the sidebar. Both of my parents are walking as a part of that team, and I have linked to each of their pages as well.
Please, please think about making a fully tax-deductible donation to any of us taking part in the Race for the Cure. I know far too many people who have watched their mothers face this awful disease (including my own). It's time to put an end to it once and for all.
