Last Saturday night we hosted our first fundraising event so far this year for our walk in the Breast Cancer 3 Day.  Our Twin Peaks team will be walking 60 miles over 3 days during the Twin Cities 3 Day, August 21st - 23rd.  It's such an incredible experience, and this year my daughter, Lauren, will be walking with me.  Each team member has to raise $2300 to walk.

Lauren just completed her first half marathon - we got to cheer her on throughout the run.  She ran in an event (From The Heart) that was organized to benefit a local family who just recently lost their mom/wife to breast cancer.  It was a wonderful day and a great success.  Over 700 people ran or walked in the half marathon for 5k.  It was also a neat way for the community to show its support to a family in need of caring at such a difficult time.

If you have a chance to particpate or cheer on some walkers during your local 3 Day event, I'd strongly urge you to grab the chance.  It's something that you'll remember for years.
