It's 2 am

and I just woke up so I can drive myself to the fairgrounds to walk my 3-5 am shift for Relay For Life. Has anyone else here participated? I'm proud that my team raised $2500 this year.
This year is the first time I co-chaired the team. I had a lot of reasons to walk this year in particular but know that a few of you have luminarias with your names on them. I literally signed your petitions for all to see.

Never did anything like that. I don't mind walking, especially for a good cause, but I've never been one for group projects like that. Have fun, drink water, and don't trip.

A group of us always helped by fixing breakfast for the Relay For Life teams on Sunday mornings. A lot of fun and a great cause!

The 3-5 shift did not kill me but the 9-11 am one did. I came home and slept like a rock until 4 pm.

We were next to a camp that decorated with albums and records from the 60s and 70s. They played great music and it kept me pumped.

We registered for next year already and in August the process will begin again. Unless we find a cure before then

BTW since you all missed it Banana Hammoca won the Ms. Relay drag contest

Well I was co-chair and it was the first time either of us led the team so there were definitely some hiccups but we raised $2500. We have several Relays in my town this time of year, so I am not sure if they publish a total for this one event or for all the events. I will watch the event website to see and report back with a total if they do.

I donated a bit this year for the walk. I wish I could do it myself.
