Hello! I wasn't sure where to post this. But...has anyone accomplished the 3 day breast cancer walk (60 miles)? I am interested in doing it, but I wasn't sure how it would work with the food issues. I was at a cheering station last month for it and was very inspired, and talked to some women who walked it and they said they are fed all day and you have to stay at a camp for the 3 days. Just wondering if anyone here has done it and how you managed it with the gluten-free diet?

I did 2 of their events pre-dx... from what I remember, there is nothing provided that you'd be able to eat, BUT there were some people that had their families bring them food into the camp for dinner every night. You could probably pack breakfast stuff in your bags... lunch might be tricky on the walk during the day, but you could either bring a pack with you or have someone cheering you along the way bring some food too.

There are some ppl who question their operating costs for these events, but having done them, I think that they have been some of the most inspiring events of my life, so I think it would be worth figuring out the food issue.

best wishes, h
