Have you done any 'Walks'?

and if so, which one(s)?




I've only done the walk for Breast cancer, and 'take back the night' while i was in college.

I do the Light the night for the lympyoma(sp?) and lukemia foundation. Its really a lot of fun.

I did relay for life, and I did a 5K for breast cancer

An amazing experience - but oh my god did my legs hurt the next day!

I did the Avon 3-day one year. But, we only ended up walking 1 day because of terrible weather - 1 day for about 17 miles. We were supposed to do 60 miles over 3 days, but I raised about $3700, which I was very proud of.

i have also done a Komen walk for breast cancer and a Revlon walk.

Breast Cancer Walk at Jones Beach for the last three years
I crewed the Susan Komen Three Day
and I am thinking of doing the LI 2 Day this year...the problem is raising all that money.
Breast Cancer is an issue with me as my friend was diagnosed with a very aggressive form three years ago, thankfully she is cancer free right now.

Every year, DH and I do the American Cancer Society Relay for Life. It has even more meaning for us now that DH is a cancer survivor.

JDF (juvenile diabetes)

I did the Revlon Run/Walk for Women in '03. It ended up being a great experience but also really emotional and difficult at the same time.

My mom has Crohn's Disease so every year I do that walk with her.

It is in Massepequa this year on April 29th and we'll be walking along with the baby!!!

Guts & Glory Walk - Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America
