We forged a common bond with 3,059 strangers through the unfolding of this unforgettable experience. I feel very proud and humble to have participated in this Walk. I want to express my deepest and most heartfelt thanks to my remarkable family, friends and every one of my sponsors for your support, generous pledges and for sharing your experiences of breast cancer with me. Your donations will help women (and men) with undetected breast cancer find out early enough to survive. Your donations will help these women, most of whom are underserved, have direct access to early detection screening and diagnostic services as well as breast health education. Your dollars will go to support continued research on breast cancer. Just know that you helped to save lives. Real lives. Not twenty years from now, but right now. Someone’s mother. Someone’s daughter. Someone’s friend. My thanks are inadequate to express how truly grateful I am to each one of you.

I walked every inch of the 60 miles and I am planning on doing it all over again next year!

Much love to you and be well-
LindaSugar
