California to New York in the Heat!!

NOT!!!

We did it – and did it in 95+ degree heat even in Newport Beach.  We walked our final long walk – 18 miles – via a route designed by Carole Cassell and tested in weeks prior with Wendy Adams, Lori Marintez and Leanne Emas.  It was a “hot walk” but we made it and enjoyed a Duffy ride to a great Mexican restaurant – SOL – courtesy of the Cassell’s water taxi service on the harbor.

— New York! Amazing all in one day. 🙂

 

Not everyone could make it to Newport Beach so we have some other team members doing their long walks next weekend.  Lynne, who has been traveling A LOT, has earned her miles on hotel treadmills.

Training Tightens Up As We Get Closer

|

This past weekend most team members hit the pavement for some good long walks.  Topping the mileage list were Wendy, Leanne, Lori and Carole, who did an 11 mile hike in Newport Beach.  Though they started early, the sun was pretty well full steam by the end of the journey.

Wait! Did they leave for New York without us?

Other team members took to the streets along the strand in Redondo Beach, in Palos Verdes and around Fullerton.  Next Sunday, the Pink Bra-Gade’s final 20-mile walk in preparation for the NYC adventure will take the group back to Newport Beach (and the Statue of Liberty??)
