Saturday, April 27, 2013 I walked in
Walk MS.
My friend’s uncle has MS and she
wrote us girls on facebook asking us to participate or donate. I signed up
months ago to walk. I could have considered that my donation and slept in that Saturday
morning. But despite the rain and chill, I got up and drove to Sporting Park. I
was blown away by the amount of people and the positivity. I instantly felt guilty
for even considering not going to the walk. I am lucky I have the ability to
walk and to think I might have wasted that gift lying in bed. I met up with
Erin and her family and I was blown away by how they were supporting Rick (her
uncle). We reached a sign that pointed 1 mile and 3 miles.
We elected to do the 3 miles and I am glad we did. The walk started at Sporting Park, the Sporting
KC arena and we walked through the Kansas Speedway and through the Legends
Shopping Center. It was rewarding to support a friend and to be a part of the
25th anniversary of the Walk MS.
I now look forward to more walks and
even 3 and 5 k’s to combine good causes and fitness.
