HO HO HO !!! - Old Guy
I'm an old guy who had a goal in mind - to walk across the state of Wisconsin in an effort to raise money to fight lung cancer. Well I completed the walk June 15th -over 260 miles & we managed to raise about $3000 towards the cause. Remember it's still not too late to send in a gift. We still are tallying everything donated and final amount to be announced soon. I want to personally thank all that followed along and supported me through-out the process.

A Brown Christmas!
Not looking good for a White Christmas folks, my kids are still hoping upon hopes for a snowman - so come on Mr Winter do your stuff!
Anyway short update today- I have been pushing hard this week to combine walking and aerobics (water & Spin) and so far so good with my knee. Over 15 miles walked and over 4 hours of aerobics.
I have started piecing together my entire route (over 32 pages) and once crosschecked for accuracy I will post it to this site. Still hoping for any idea's on logos/t-shirt design to help promote this fundraising effort. My wife Jen came up with an outstanding idea of getting large font promotional magnets to stick to our truck and van. Anybody willing to help out by letting me temporarily have one stuck to their vehicle please let one of us know.
I now believe God works in mysterious ways- (just look at this Tim Tebow fad) so I pray somehow the good lord will keep me in one piece for at least the next 7 months.
Lastly as a devoted Cheesehead my beloved football team is still undefeated- I have the playoff tickets and can't wait!
Everyone keep your sanity with the hustle and bustle of preparing for next weekend!

Let's get this Party Started!
Just added a couple of visual snapshots of the route I plan on Walking & Biking across the Wisconsin next June. Take a look at the top right side of the blog for the entire trip and look at bottom of page for the 1st day.
I continue to update my training efforts daily on the facebook link so please peek in to see how I'm doing.
With the Holidays fast approaching I will ask all that have tuned in to find time to consider donating to my charity. direct link http://events.lungevity.org/site/TR?type=fr_tribute_fund&fr_id=1030&pxfid=23162&action=reply&parentid=21010&return=rlst&bpg=post&bpg=post&pg=fund
I also welcome any and all suggestions to make this memorial trek more visible. I am looking for anyone with a creative touch to come up with a LOGO I can apply to items like t-shirts, hats, even coffee mugs just to get the word out. Also if anybody has connections to Radio/Television people or idea's how to get this idea out front thru the digital world PLEASE HELP! Like my page indicates I am by no means an expert.
