March of Dimes Walk

Today was the March of Dimes walk in St. Cloud and we had a great time. First, I want to thank everyone who supported me. I met my first goal of $200 the first week, so I changed my goal to $350 and met that Tuesday of this week. I then decided to try to make a goal of $500 and I am proud to say I was able to meet and exceed that goal! Thank you so much everyone for your support! I can’t wait to walk again next year. The weather was perfect, We actually got a little sunburn while we were out. Taylor came with me and I think he walked at least half of the 5 miles by himself and then would ride in our jogging stroller when he needed a break. I was so proud of him today. He even told me in the car on the way home, “Mom, when I got tired I just kept telling myself, you can do and keep going and I did.” That’s what a Mom and Coach LOVE TO HEAR! Jenny and our nieces came on the walk too. I really enjoyed getting so much time with them.
