I admit I'm using the term 'training,' rather loosely.
I'm kinda-sorta exercising to survive through three upcoming walks ... the first one is Sunday morning.
The Center for Disability Rights in West Haven is holding its eighth annual Wheel-A-Thon.
It will start at 9 a.m. at the Savin Rock Conference Center, 5 Rock St., West Haven. More than 90 percent of the funds raised go to programs and scholarships for area teens with disabilities.
Teams have been formed but CDR Executive Director Marc Anthony Gallucci invites individuals to "c'mon down" and join in the event. It's always a fun time.
It costs $25 to register and for that you get breakfast, camaraderie, and the knowledge you are helping to improve the life of a young person who is facing challenges.
Next up is the fourth annual Pounding the Pavement for Pink to benefit Seymour Pink, Inc., a grass roots initiative to promote awareness of breast cancer and financially support local survivors deal with the disease.
The walk/run will start at 9 a.m. Oct. 5 from the Seymour Community Center, 20 Pine St., Seymour.
And on Oct. 12 it's the fifth annual Griffin 5K WalkRun. That also kicks off at 9 a.m., from the parking lot of the Center for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital, 350 Seymour Ave., Derby.
If you haven't signed up for any of these walks, please consider joining in ~ you'll be glad you did.
