saving second base

Hi all,

This weekend, the Breast Cancer 3-Day is coming to Michigan.  If you are not familiar with the event, it raises money and promotes breast cancer awareness.  Each participant will walk 60 miles over the three days (Fri-Sun).  The truly amazing part is that in order to participate, each walker has to raise a minimum of $2200.   Of all the 13 (??) 3-Days, Michigan is the biggest.  4000 walkers registered and we expect over 3200 to make the fund raising minimum.  This is a truly amazing event. 

I have been on the crew for four events, and have to say it is a life changing experience.  So if you see a wave of pink coming through your neighborhood, come out and applaud these truly amazing people.  Here is a rough map of where the walkers will be each day:

Also, if you see a guy wearing an orange route safety shirt dressed like a pirate or riding around with a pink mohawk on his helmet, stop and say howdy as that will be me.  What I am thinking, you guys are triathletes, you'll notice my bike first:  olive green Iguana (by Giant) mountain bike with front suspension, trail tires, and a flag made up of a pink panther banner (route safety's team name) and pink bra.

Hope to see you out there.
