Keeping Busy

Sarah and I have continued to train the past few weeks. We're walking tomorrow and I hope we can get a good 5 miles in rain or shine. We're going to be going to a 3-Day event this weekend in Naperville to get shoes fitted properly so we can avoid any possible blisters. It's gotten VERY hot in Chicago this past week. I haven't felt dehydrated after any of our walks, so I'm hoping I'm drinking enough while we've been training. I believe we're going to do a 10 mile walk this weekend around the lake.

Another 3 Day team from Seattle, "The Wizards of Bras," contacted me about designing a logo for their team in exchange for a donation to my walk fund. I guess they saw my first post about helping the other team out. I instantly had a pretty cute and simple idea for their logo so I took it on. I just started working on it, but I'll post it on here once I complete it.

I've been thinking about mom a lot lately. I really miss her and it literally hurts when I think about her. I hate the emptiness and the fact I can't even call her up to tell her what's going on or just hear her voice. Doing things for the 3 Day or to help research/awareness for breast cancer seem to help. I've been thinking about a few things I can do, but it never seems like enough. I've been trying to get involved in every aspect of the 3 Day that I can and just surround myself in it. I know my mom would be proud of the stuff I've been doing and maybe that's why being occupied with these types of things sidetracks the pain.
