What: Participate in the Light the Night walk. Take a short stroll with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society under the night sky as red and white balloons light up the sky. The event is a short walk and is suitable for all fitness levels and kids. The participants are charged a registration fee and receive a t-shirt and balloon. Survivors receive a survivors balloon. It truly is a beautiful walk and inspiring to see all the people in support of the cause and the survivors. Teams can be formed and there are awards for top fundraisers.
Why it's my one of my favorite things: It is a somber event, but really has an emotional impact on participants. I cannot tell you how inspiring it is to see everyone come together for a cause.
Pros: Short commitment, inspiring, all fitness levels can participate, kid friendly, fun.
Cons: A short distance and many people walking are not there for fitness so if you are a walker or runner you may find the crowds to hinder your exercise.
How: Go to the Light the Night website to find an event near you. You will hear from the chapter after completing the form.
DO IT, you will not regret it!
