The Breast Cancer 3 Day San Francisco walk begins friday morning, september 5th, with opening ceremonies commencing at 6:30am at the Cow Palace.Trisha's Trailblazers, a team of 19 friends and family who are walking in honor of trisha as well as other loved ones that have been affected by this disease, has done an outstanding job of raising over $55,000 to benefit the Susan G. Komen For The Cure fund.
Last I heard, this team has the third highest fund raising amount of all san francisco 3 day walk teams! thats an amazing accomplishment.
although they have eclipsed their team goal, there are still teammates working towards their individual fund raising goal.
if you are interested in donating, take a look at the Trisha's Trailblazer's team page and find a teammate that has not reached 100% of their goal.

trish is honored that so many friends and family have participated in the 2 Day Avon walk in July, and this weekend's 3 Day walk. although she would much rather be walking along side you, honoring someone else, but it is what it is..
thank you so much, and trish looks forward to walking in it next year and has been hinting at the Boston 3 Day...

P.S. Good luck this weekend to all of Trisha's Trailblazers! Stay strong!
Wow! I have to say that I signed up for the 3day in the Bay Area this past March and shortly after I ran across your blog. I was so touched that I couldn't help but to cry! During opening and closing ceremony I recognized your mom and couldn't help but to cry. Then you walked on stage and I couldn't stop crying! Almost as if I knew you. I walked not because I have a personal story but because I can and don't ever want my daughters to ever be affected by breast cancer. And for "FIGHTERS" like you! I wish you and your family well! Stay strong!
