| Opening Ceremony - 6:00 a.m. We're ready! |
Here are photos of our amazing weekend at the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer 2011. We walked 39.3 miles in two days. The photos are out of order, but I put captions. You'll get an idea of what it's like from them.
Basically, it's set up so that Friday evening, you check in at Event Eve. Turn in any last checks you may have received, take photos, get pumped up.
Day 1: Opening Ceremony - Walk 26 miles (full marathon) and spend the evening in the Wellness Village
Day 2: Walk 13 miles (half marathon). Closing Ceremony.
In between you make a lot of memories, feel the hope and love of those around you, and feel that you really can make a difference. Enjoy!
