And you're reading this... why?: 6/6/07

Please support me and my friends Dina and Loretta as we take an amazing journey in the fight against breast cancer! The Breast Cancer 3-Day is a 60-mile walk over the course of three days. Net proceeds benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure and the National Philanthropic Trust, funding important breast cancer research, education, screening, and treatment.

JODI’s 3-DAY UPDATE #2:

BE ADVISED THIS EMAIL WAS SENT TO A NUMBER OF FRIENDS AND FAMILY 6/6/07!

First update: Have you ever watched Survivor on CBS? Don’t worry, this isn’t a commercial for CBS or Reality Shows. And no, that is not my next adventure. The reason I am asking is because I always cry during the episode that features the letters from home. I think it’s touching to hear the words of wisdom, support, and encouragement. It never fails to restore the participants’ energy, brighten their spirits, and carry them through those final days on the island.

Here’s the point: You can do the same for me!!!

During the Cleveland 3-Day walk, there is a Camp Post Office. Letters should be sent 2 weeks prior to the event (Aug 17-19) to ensure they will be onsite. If you are interested in doing this, here is where you should send it:

Next update: Training is going really well. This should be a record week for me and my teammates. We should hit 38 miles by the end of the week – 13 of which will come from our Saturday morning “stroll” in Hinckley. The nice thing is that we are seeing some beautiful sections of our metroparks. And it doesn’t hurt that my pants fit better now too! LOL!

For those of you who have not been witness to it yet, I have started a Blister Blog online at http://jhetman.blogspot.com/. Warning - some of the pictures posted are not pretty! Blisters have definitely been the hardest part of my training… but what can I say, I am just a sensitive girl all over!

Final update: I am up to $1,485!!! Wow! You guys are amazing! My next challenge is getting to that $2,200 mark. To help me with that, a very talented friend of mine has volunteered her time and skills by making and donating these bracelets (see the attached pictures).

If you would be interested in purchasing a bracelet, please let me know by emailing me the color you’d prefer (green or pink) and if you prefer a Medium or Large.
