Mama Quinn and I are In It To End It, and we need your help to reach our $7000 goal. You can make a donation to our fundraising campaign right here on the website by clicking on the pink "Donate Now" button on the right. If you have a small business (or know someone who does and might be interested), for a $100 donation we will put your company name and logo on our team shirts, our websites and all promotional materials we make for the event. You can also help up raise money by making a purchase from our Cafe Press store above; all profits will go directly into our fundraising efforts.

Check back soon for updates on our progress ... let the walking and the fundraising begin!

Kicking Off the 2012 Avon Breast Cancer Walk

That's right, The Mighty Quinns are at it again - for the third year in a row, we're walking 2 days and 40 miles for a cure, along with thousands of other committed (and potentially crazy) DC walkers.

Participating this year is more personal for me than in years past - in the last 6 months, two dear friends of mine have lost loved ones to breast cancer, one a shockingly quick year after diagnosis, the other after a valiant ten year battle.

Mom continues to lead the team with her energy, her endurance and her positive attitude despite alternating unseasonable heat and chilly rain, the killer hills and her hatred of Gatorade. And this year she is retired, she has even more time to train! But I will not be outwalked by my 68-year-old mom, let the training begin!
