Oh Hi! Remember me? Yah sorry about that little break in
blogging. I ah got captured by Pink People and held until I danced and cheered
until I couldn’t dance and cheer no more.
The 3Day was this past weekend. And what an odd 3Day it was
this year. While I LOVED the 3Day and all that comes with the 3Day, I need to
have a serious talk with Team Wraspir about getting back together and walking
together. Stalking was difficult this year.
Here’s the skinny.
Our beautiful Survivor, Blueberry, walked with Flamingo Road
this year. And while I’m thrilled she picked a Flamingo Team – and a team she
loves – she needs to walk with the others.

Seattle SIL decided to be a volunteer crew member this year
and found herself on a sweep van (basically the vans that drive up and down the
route picking up tired and hurt walkers). Its great she volunteered, and she rocked it, but she
needs to walk with the team.
And lastly, BigBro. He walked – ish. He didn’t train like he
should so walking this year was a challenge. Still he got out there and did a
damn fine job of walking. But he needs to walk with team.

I missed stalking the three of them together. I am hatching a plan already for next year. I’ll
keep you posted.

As for me, I had the time of my life…again. I had TWO co-pilot stalkers this year. And if
I do say so myself we were SUPER WALKER STALKERS!!! The Niece, aka MammoGirl
and her girlfriend, Lady TaTa joined me on the route.
 |
| Ole! Lady TaTa |

Sparky was ALL Decked out and enjoyed every single bit of attention
she got. And she got a lot of it this year.
 |
| Yep. Those are speakers on top of the light bar! |
 |
| What? This old thing. Why I just threw it on this morning. |
 |
| Team Ford "had" to get their photo with the rock star Sparky. |
 |
| We were so awesome it almost hurt! |
Between us being Superheros, Sparky being the DJ and Super
Pink, and our sign, we were popular this year. I wonder how many people have us
in their photos.
 |
| If we had received a donation for every person who wanted a photo of our sign, we could walk in a couple 3Day's ... easily. |
Speaking of photos, biggest bummer ever. On day 3 at closing
I lost my FULL camera card. 500+ photos of all three days. Gone! I broke my own photo rule by not taking
them off every night. I’m so sad at the loss of all those photos. I just know I had some award winning photos
in there this year. I’m sure of it.
I suppose on the bright side it’ll be the quickest 3day
scrapbook ever. I’ve been stalking FB for photos, and thankfully Blueberry had
taken photos. As has so many other friends. I did a few with my iPhone too, so
I have some. But not all.

 |
| This is what courage, strength and $3.4million looks like. |
 |
| We will never give up! |
In other non 3-day news, I’m still jogging. I think I mentioned we’re doing each Couch 2
5K week twice. This week is the second week of week 1. Yesterday we did day 1
of week 1. I hadn’t jogged for 4 days. I was concerned. But I kicked major jogging arse yesterday. I
did the entire 8 minutes without huffing and puffing to the point of losing
oxygen in my brain. In fact, I was awesome.
It felt SOOOO good. And a little
painful. Turns out I have shin splints.
Not too surprising, but damn they hurt. I think I’m ready to move on to Week 2
next week.
