Saved by Slurpees!


Laura and walked 18 miles on Saturday! By the time we were at 15.5 miles, it was after 11:00 AM and HOT! Around 82-83 degrees and very little shade was to be found. Laura said that she was going to tell her mom to bring us Popsicles on the 3 Day walk. I replied that my family could probably bring us slurpees at a cheering station. Anything cold sounded good at the moment. Then it hit me...there would be a 7-11 coming up at mile 16 (on our side of the street even!). It was time for a slurpee run!!! Oh thank heaven for 7-11! We got our slurpees, and those managed to keep us cool through out the next two miles. Hopefully, it won't get so hot a month from now when we are on the 3 Day. But if it is, we will just find the nearest convenience store and get a treat!
