Title: I am very proud of my boys! Post by: mznb1u on August 16, 2011, 12:22:29 am As a lot of you guys know, my wife is a breast cancer survivor. On Saturday, August 6th, my son Joey and I rode our bicycles 60 miles in the Ride for the Cure and raised over $2,000 for the Komen Foundation. This past weekend, my son Tim and I walked 60 miles in the Susan G. Komen 3 Day for the Cure and raised over $5,000 for the Komen Foundation.
I am a very proud father and happy to see the fine young men that these boys are becoming! :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: I am very proud of my boys! Post by: 90grad on August 16, 2011, 05:50:42 am Well done, guys!

One of our close friends has been training and is walking in the San Francisco SGK 3-Day in Sept. The hills will be tough for her, but not the heat. Title: Re: I am very proud of my boys! Post by: bremett on August 16, 2011, 01:53:51 pm Awesome. I always like to hear things like this.

Post by: mznb1u on August 17, 2011, 06:58:29 am Tim, That is great,, however I think the Goatee needs to be pink as well. Have tried to dye the goatee a couple of times but it will not hold color and the sunscreen strips it right out anyway! :biggrin: 8) :laugh: :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: I am very proud of my boys! Post by: mznb1u on August 17, 2011, 07:00:51 am Way to go Tim and sons! One of our close friends has been training and is walking in the San Francisco SGK 3-Day in Sept. The hills will be tough for her, but not the heat. I have a few friends walking in SF this year. Tell your friend to look for Matthew "Mr. January" of the 60 Mile Men. He is a good friend of mine from Michigan who started a calendar back in 2008 that features a lot of the guys who walk. All of the money goes to SGK. I believe he is also walking in Seattle this year. He usually does 3 events a year. I am planning on Philly this year as well but I need to get my blisters healed up before I can start training again! :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: I am very proud of my boys! Post by: mznb1u on August 17, 2011, 07:01:58 am Thank you for all of the kind words. The boys and I appreciate it very much!
