The 3 Day

I just finished my 2nd 3 Day as the Camp Logistics Crew Captain.. and let me say. It was the hardest 4 Days of work. Between the rain,the wind and the relo and having less people... it was difficult. I could see it in my peoples eyes that they were frustrated by the lack of information that I had to give them. Which trust me, was frustating to me too.
I was as postive as I could be, and I am proud to say, I got a couple emails from my members that they would crew again.. maby not camp logistics but still crew. And if people are willing to come back and crew again, I say I did my job. as I am not joking when I say it is the most difficult crew to be on. It is so difficult because our job involves so many differnent tasks.. and well, the Komen tells me very little. I think I almost pass out on Saturday due to lack of sleep, no down time, and really bad food. We brought pizza in to camp for Dinner, and I swear, that pizza saved my life.
What I did to keep up my spirits on such a hard event was that I would cheer up walkers by walking up and down the line there were waiting in for hours and made people laugh by having smiling contest or telling them I would hug them and that I had not showered in a couple days. On Saturday at my lowest point, due to lack of sleep and food and just so exhausted I was in tears, a couple walkers stopped me and thanked me for for cheering them up on Friday, and gave me hugs just when I needed it.

All and all, it was a fun time, if you rethink your idea of fun. :) Cannot wait for next year, but I might try and do a different crew. Camp Logistics is truly very very difficult.

Walking

I decided to do the breast cancer 3 day again.... so I have started my walking back up. Today I went for about a 6 miles walk.. It was a good day for a walk.. sunny and about 70. And my Ipod is fully loaded.. and this year I have a computer.. so I can make different play-lists. Last time I trained I had the Ipod..but no computer..so I had about 250 songs that I listened to a lot. So far I am enjoying the walking.. Hopefully by this summer I will regularly walking 10 plus miles on Saturdays. I do not plan on training quite as hard this year. The last time I walked I think I was almost over prepared. It was almost easy. This time I am going to go slower and enjoy the view a bit more. And heck.. maby even get swept. Last time I walked I was always with in the first 150 walkers back to camp.... But I was walking to prove that I was not sick any more.. this time I want to enjoy all that the walk has to offer.
