ATL It's The Journey 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer


I know you've already heard it a hundred times, but I don't mind reminding you that it's Breast Cancer Awareness Month - it's such an important cause and near and dear to my heart that I hope you're encouraged to donate to organizations fighting against the disease and supporting those who must battle it. Also, females and males, please get regular check ups so that if something is wrong, it can be detected as soon as possible. 

It's The Journey, Inc. - producer of the Atlanta 2-Day Walk for Breast Cancer - is a local organization that celebrated its 10th Anniversary last week. Participants walk 30 miles through Atlanta over two days and also participate in events and meals together.

My best friend Nick and some of his family & friends participated in the walk in honor of his mother and I was so honored to meet them at the finish line on the second day of the walk. I'm so impressed and supportive of It's The Journey Inc. and I'm happy that I could support them through my donation.

Nick & the rest of the group at mile 20 of 30, exhausted I'm sure!
