THANK YOU, THANK YOU! 1000 2000 TIMES, THANK YOU!
That’s right folks, I’ve finally made it! I raised all the boobie money! At this point in time, the official total is a whopping $2091.11. Unfortunately, that won’t show up on the website until after the event, as I’ve got a few cheques that I need to present at the check in on Day Zero (August 20th). But it’s all there!
And I’m there! That’s such a huge weight lifted off my shoulders, and you can’t even imagine how good I feel about having raised such a significant amount for such an important cause. And I couldn’t have done it without the overwhelming support of everyone who donated. Of course, I’ve reached the minimum, but if you love boobs - yours and/or someone else’s - please keep donating. What a sad place the world would be with no boobs.
And now, the fun starts. I get to put my training to the test, and try to not die on this 60k walk. If you’d like to cheer (or heckle) me on, the cheering stations are in the extended entry.
Thanks again everyone! I’m getting all misty over here. I LOVE YOU GUYS!
