Chris’ 3Day campaign completed! Fund thermometer bursts

Thanks to many of you, my wife’s Breast Cancer 3Day Walk thermometer today began showing 100 percent funding!  Chris has raised $2,300 from more than 50 friends, co-workers and family members. (See my original pitch.) Now she can focus exclusively on her training for the 60-mile walk around San Diego over three days starting Friday, November 20. She’s getting a T-shirt that lists the names of her backers — on the back of the shirt!  We went for a six-mile stroll yesterday at Cuyamaca College in El Cajon, and she broke in one of her pairs of shoes (the one a half-size bigger than normal). 3Day walkers are told they should expect some swelling in their feet after the first day. Chris has been training diligently, and should be able to finish the trek. But she couldn’t have made it to the starting line without your help!
