Join @BeeWellforLife in a game of #Tag4Cancer
By Laurie | May 4, 2011
You may remember last Mother’s Day I was selected by Bumble Bee to be the regional ambassador of the Walk to Empower in Houston. I gave a speech in front of a large crowd before the walk. I conquered a huge fear that day– I am definitely not a public speaker. None-the-less, I cannot imagine the fear of being told you have cancer.
I admire everything Bumble Bee does to raise money for those impacted by breast cancer. They have a wonderful program where you can log your fitness miles (walking, biking, running) called BeeWell for Life. Each mile translates to a monetary donation to the charity Y-ME, which is dedicated to providing immediate emotional relief to anyone affected by breast cancer. Back when I was training for the 3-Day I logged a lot of miles. It’s also a fun place to track your meals and workouts, so you can benefit too while doing your part to raise money for breast cancer support. See? It’s a win-win.
You can follow @BeeWellforLife on Twitter too, and join in on their #Tag4Cancer game. Each tweet using the #Tag4Cancer hashtag and tagging a friend will help raise awareness for the cause and their program plus you earn an entry toward winning an awesome prize– an iPad2!
You can also sign up for the 2011 Y-ME Race at Your Pace on Mother’s Day, May 8. Here’s a sneak peak at what you will experience, and thanks again to Bumble Bee for all they do for this cause:
