What a gift to be a part of such an incredible event. To be surrounded by amazing women all rallying around a cause to cure breast cancer and to support those who are affected by it. I learned so much. I cried so much. I walked so so so so much. I didn’t know what to expect out of these 3 days. I didn’t know how hard it would be to walk 20 miles a day 3 days in a row (should have been obvious). I didn’t know how many stories I would hear of those lost, of those fighting, of those who know they are on borrowed time. I didn’t know how much joy and hope people could bring when things feel so hopeless and lost (not just from cancer. yes, I am still mourning the election and I will be for the next 4 years). I am grateful to my friends who invited me to join them. And to all the women and men who volunteered, cheered, walked, bandaged blistered feet (mine included), and donated (thank you thank you!). If you ever have the opportunity to be a part of this walk in any way, I absolutely think you should.
