Pondering a long walk.
Feb. 23rd, 2007 09:47 amSo, I've been thinking about doing the Avon 2-day breast cancer walk.
Pros:
Cons:
Comments? Thoughts? Encouragement? Discouragement?
Pros:
- It's an issue I care about; my grandmother and great-aunt both died of breast cancer, and I know several other people who've had to fight it.
- Walking is good. It'd be a good preliminary test of what I'd have to do to walk to Santiago.
- It'd be motivation to keep at my regular workouts.
- It could be fun.
Cons:
- I'm not convinced that even by May I'll really be in shape to walk a marathon one day and a half-marathon the next.
- I'd have to hit up people I know for money, which always makes me feel oogy. (You have to raise a minimum of $1800 to participate.)
- It'd eat up the one weekend in May that isn't currently occupied.
