Training is so important in preparation for the 3-Day! How could you ever think of walking 60 miles without practicing it? This year, I was once again selected as a Training Walk Leader (TWL). I have been blessed to walk with several ladies and gentlemen this year. Meeting new people is the best part of being a training walk leader. I love encouraging walkers and seeing the look on their faces when they complete a set number of miles. The miles and time passes faster when walking with friends too!
The training plan for the 3 day totals over 500 miles. That's not including the actual 60 miles in 3 days. Due to life, I can't do it all. But, I do what I can to prepare. So far, as of today, I have completed over 220 training miles this year. It's not easy, but the 3-Day Spirit shown by the 3-Day Family keeps you going all the way to the closing ceremony! I am so excited to walk this year. I am so excited to meet the new faces put in my path! New faces to encourage, to support, and to show God's love to too. Thanks to everyone for supporting me. Thank you, God for allowing me this opportunity, the strength to walk, and for shining though me to help others. I am so blessed by being a part of this team and being a small part to help find a cure to end cancer!! I just want to make a difference in this world and I hope my life, my story, will give hope and strength to others. I'll continue to walk, you keep walking too....
Live your life from your heart, share from your heart, and your story will touch and heal people's souls. M Beattie
