The 3 Day, 60 mile Breast Cancer walk is held in a number of cities throughout the year. It is held in San Diego every November and the headquarters happens to be set-up at the bay right in front of our house. Every year we walk down and check out it out. It is truly amazing watching all of the people who have committed to walking 60 miles to raise money for breast cancer awareness. This year they raised 9 million in San Diego alone. I have friends who have done it multiple years and I guess there are such a variety of people who participate. Men, women, young, old, people who have lost loved ones and those who have been diagnosed or fought it themselves. The amount of people that come out and support them is also a sight to see. People dress up and decorate their cars with pink, bras, fake boobs, etc. Every year I tell Josh I want to do it and be a part of such an amazing cause. I don't know when but one of these years I am going to walk in it. I think I may have to skip the camping part, I can't imagine sleeping in a tent after walking 20 miles in a day!
We dressed Emmy up in her pink sweatsuit for the occasion, she was a hit :)
These pictures do not do the scene justice. There are pink tents set-up everywhere and tons of people walking and cheering them on.
