Today many of my family members and friends got together for the first annual walk for Mom. This walk has been in the works since earlier in the year when my niece expressed an interest in doing a walk in honor of Mom.
Since I do a lot of 5ks and marathons she knew I could figure it out. And so today marked the first Mom walk.
It was a great day, we even had the newest addition to the family, baby Victor. We had the Livestrong wristbands, a sign for Mom and the inspiration to do the walk. As this was a Livestrong event we even managed to raise a little money.
Next year we hope for more people to come out for this worthwhile event and join us in remembering our Mom, our grandma and most of all our hero. Thanks to everyone who came out, and a big Thanks to my niece for suggesting we do this walk for "Grandma."
Livestrong events are for everyone who wants to become involved, and a great support system for those who may be fighting cancer. God bless everyone.
