Again this September, I am participating in The Million Mike during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. And once again, my best friend Lis Strenger is joining me!

My goal is to walk a total of 15 miles, mostly around my town of Stoneham, MA, but I'll walk wherever I happen to be. I will be using my walker and may not walk very far at one time. But I'm determined to contribute what I can to the Million Mile and I am so very grateful for all of you who encourage me and donate!

I'm inspired by the courage and kindness of little Alex Scott, the bravery and determination of 2005 Preakness & Belmont Stakes Winner Afleet Alex, and the commitment of Iron Chef Alex Guarnaschelli. A HUGE thank you to Stephanie Q. for the gorgeous head shot of the incomparable Afleet Alex!

I hope you will support us with a donation (any amount is greatly appreciated!) and help move us closer to finding a cure for all children with cancer! Thank you for your support!
