Pink House Nine

Red House Nine has gone Pink! There is a reason for this and trust me, it's a DAMN GOOD reason. Katie Butler and I will begin our 60 mile journey around Boston to benefit Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk For the Cure of Breast Cancer in two days!!  




We begin on Friday morning bright and early at 5:30-6:00am.  We walk all day Friday - for 20 miles or about 6 hours - with stops for water, potty, & lunch during the day. Katie and I will continue this routine for two more days ending on Sunday afternoon. However, this weekend is offering up quite the challenge... HEAT. Want to see the forecast for Friday, Saturday, & Sunday? 



Well hello hotness, you're not welcome here. The desert is about 2500 miles west. Go there and stay - oh and take your friend humid with you. Thanks. It is going to suck. We are going to be puddles of goo when we are done on Sunday. But this is all in the name of saving lives, second base, and honoring survivors. I'm ok with it. 

Ed, my brother Adam and Connor will be joining us to cheer us on and, of course, drink Boston's delicious variety of microbrews. You know, side note: I'm making sure Ed brings home a growler of Watermelon Ale and Blueberry Lager from Boston Beer Works.  I know you're saying whhhhaattt?? No way that can be good. Trust me, it is beyond delicious. 


Anyway, this weekend will prove to be an awesome male bonding excursion for Ed, Adam and Cman and also I get to spend quality time with my best friend of the last 28 years; even if we are sweating our asses off. 





I want to thank everyone who donated to our team for the walk. You all went above and beyond and we have far surpassed our goal of $4600!! You all are amazingly awesome Rock Stars and I do believe that this cause will/could/has touch(ed) each and every one of us and helping raise awareness and research monies will forever better quality of life for those already affected, also for those of us who are at high risk, and also for the grandmas, moms, aunts, cousins, sisters, sister-in-laws, mother-in-laws, best friends,  nieces, and granddaughters. We love you all and walk for the cure. 



XO.
