Raising Fitness, Raising Funds

So here we are only 54 days away from meeting on Orcas Island, and 55 days from our first strokes around Vancouver Island. Roughly.

I'm firing off 11-mile paddles on my lunch break and looking for more gym time in the evening. But fitness is only part of our preparation.

We (actually Breakthrough Breast Cancer) just got a first donation on the site Keirron set up through the UK JustGiving sponsorship site!

Here's the link to our local Komen Foundation donation site - they support an excellent research program here in the States.

And for those who know our bow-maiden beneficiary, we hope to get a local online donation setup directly to Ginni as well. In the meantime, email me to get on a list with more details on Ginni's donation bank account and I'll copy you on our April press release.

Happy paddles!
