1 Million Steps for RAINN: 5/28/11 Update - 200K steps complete

Between May 9 and August 31, 2011, I'm walking 1 million steps for RAINN.

In this update, I just passed 200,000 steps - 1/5 of the way to my goal!

I'm asking everybody to donate just $10 to the cause. That may not seem like a lot, but it will pay for 3 phone calls for the National Sexual Assault Hotline that RAINN operates.

If you give $100 or more, I will send you a tote bag. 

No, really. I will crochet you a tote bag in your favorite color.

For serious.

100,000 steps completed! 900,000 steps to go!

Today was a big day for two reasons:

1. I completed 100,000 steps. I'm so excited!

2. Pro-wrestler Mick Foley is awesome. The Huffington Post honored him today for his work with RAINN. It's so inspiring to read how he got involved with RAINN and why he believes so strongly in their mission.

Also, I just started using my new, more accurate pedometer and am breaking in my new walking shoes (my old ones were shot after 2 1/2 years of wearing them on the elliptical trainer).

Big thanks to my mom and my friend Alison for donating. Even if you can only spare a few dollars, it would mean a lot to RAINN. As little as $10 will pay for three calls to the National Sexual Assault Hotline. And if you can't spare the cash, please spread the word. A tweet or a Facebook post would mean an awful lot.

Thank you!
