My step-daughter is taking some STEPS!



Tess is going to be walking the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk in Tampa, Florida in October!

In case you aren't familiar, the net proceeds from the Breast Cancer 3-Days benefit the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation to fund breast cancer research and community outreach, as well as the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Fund, to provide an endowment for breast cancer initiatives.

It's 60 miles to walk over three days. As their site says,
" It's a weekend of hope, as we honor lives lost, celebrate survivors, promote breast cancer research, and help bring breast cancer care to those who so desperately need it."

In Italy only one event in Rome at the end of may. A very crowded 5 km through the most beautiful and ancient part of the capital.

That's a tremendous challenge! Can you imagine walking 20 miles a day for 3 days in a row????
