She did it!
My mom did the Avon Walk for breast cancer this weekend with her friend Cynthia. I'm so proud of her! She's been training really hard the past couple of months, and this weekend was the real event. 
The weather worked out perfectly (cloudy and cool on Saturday, and sunny and breezy on Sunday), so we went out on the route to cheer her on. Unfortunately she didn't make it all the way to Central Park, where we were waiting, on the first day, but we managed to find her and Cynthia on Sunday. We walked with them over the bridge with a whole gaggle of other walkers.
Take a look at the photo album. Best of all, she's raised money to go towards research to find a cure for breast cancer...so many of her friends have been affected by it, and it's really amazing to have an event like this to raise awareness about the disease.
Posted by tracie at October 5, 2004 06:12 PMThank you for those beautiful photos. Cynthia and I were so happy to see the three of you, especially at the end of our walk. We needed some cheering on.
I enjoyed reading your thoughts too. I guess this is kind of like your electronic dairy.
Got to go and do my homework, talk with you soon.
love, mom
