Avon Walk Weekly Update

It’s time again for my weekly Avon Walk update. If you’d like to see my full training calendar, check it out here or on the left sidebar of my blog.

Thoughts on training: The weather this week was great here in Boston. I was able to get outside with some friends for a couple long walks. I wish it hadn’t been pouring all weekend though… I’m hoping spring will come (and stay!) soon enough so outdoor walking can be a regular event.

Thoughts on fundraising: A couple more donations showed up this week, which is great! I’m only $350 away from my goal.

Miles walked last week: 5.5
Minutes doing cardio: 0
Minutes doing cross training or weight lifting: 0
Total $$ raised: $2,150

Thanks to everyone who has donated so far! If you’d like to donate to support my walk, you can make a donation on my Avon Walk page.

    Oh, Jen. Wow, I am so sorry to hear this. My heart breaks just looking at these photos. I can’t even imagine the emotions you and your family have felt this past year. I’m glad you decided to write and post your thoughts. It’s so important to get those feelings out—and it always helps knowing you’re not alone.

    Tornadoes are horribly scary. We have our fair share here in Nebraska, and I work in disaster education and preparedness. Even so, they can occur so quickly and can cause so much devastation in such a short amount of time. And the recovery process certainly takes time. Sending a virtual hug your way!

    What a strong and resilient community, so much has been done in only a year. God Bless to all who have toughed it out and rebuilt. So happy for you and your family for surviving this.
