I have some photos and I have some stories, but I’ll start off my summary of this year’s 3 Day Walk with a video I took during the morning of the 2nd day. It’s 45 seconds long, so we maybe covered 1/16th of a mile during that time. We walked 60 miles, and this is [...]

I’m not dressed, but everything else is packed up and ready to head on out of here.
If you want to text us good luck during the walk, feel free. If you call, I won’t be able to answer it without stopping, and I’m sure I’m not going to want to stop. Here’s my # six-one-two, [...]

Twenty-four hours from now, I’ll be at least 15-miles into our 60-mile walk. Jenni and I will probably be giddy at this point, or into our not-talking just-wanna-get-to-camp phase, which is scary and you probably don’t want to see it. It’s possible we could also be in the “Our friends are so fucking awesome!” phase, [...]

During the 2005 3 Day Walk, we walked in a lot of rain, slept on gym floors, and finished the walk with temperatures so hot we were laying on piles of ice at each pit stop.
Last year, the weather was beautiful - in the 80s, maybe? Enough to sweat a lot, but not enough to [...]

A year ago today:

Just a few days until we do it all over again…

Today is Head Shaving Day. Yikes!
Our Send-Off Party/Silent Auction starts at 7pm tonight at Hubert’s Bar & Grill in downtown Minneapolis. If you can make it, you’ll get to witness The Great Head Shaving Incident of 2007. If you can’t make it, I imagine there will be more than enough pictures, and perhaps some video, [...]

For the most part, the people that donated things and ended up winning things at the Boob Ha Ha were people I’d never met. Hey, strangers like boobs.
Barbara, from knittingpassion.com, has just thrown down a challenge of her own:
Here’s what I will promise to do - for each and EVERY dollar (up to $100) that [...]

I love my tattoos so much. My latest one is currently entering scab over and itch phase, which I absolutely hate, but I’m good at ignoring it.
I’m torn between my next tattoo idea, mainly because I don’t know where to put it. I just know if I win one of these tattoo gift certificates that [...]

Our team has met our $30,000 fundraising goal, so we upped it to $35,000. It seemed like the logical thing to do. We’re currently in 13th place out of over 610 teams that have registered for the Twin Cities 3 Day. How amazing is all of that?
We have one final fundraiser that’s going on right [...]

Our pancake breakfast was a success this morning. Matt, Jenni, Katie, and I spent a lot of time standing outside of a shopping mall with large posters, encouraging mall-walkers and shoppers alike that they needed some tasty pancakes (and bacon) to start out their day. Our efforts harassing the public brought in at least a [...]
