by Kim Gillcoat | on Oct 19, 2011

Predix announces that our Sales Consultant, Sarah Blik, will be participating in this year’s 60 mile 3 Day for the Cure to benefit the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation! Sarah wanted to share the following:

“This will be my 6^th year walking to help find a cure for breast cancer. When we all look at our circle of family and friends, unfortunately we have all have been touched by this horrific disease in one form or fashion. Cancer has no boundaries. Each year I carry with me the names of those that I am walking for, whether in memory, in honor or support we walk for them. This 3 day event is a very inspirational, emotional, and physical challenge. I truly feel humbled knowing that some ladies who I am walking next to have just undergone some of the most aggressive treatments out there and they have physically and emotionally been tapped. Thank you for your support, whether in thoughts and prayers and/or financially, it is much appreciated!!”
