In 2009 me, my friend Lance, and my cousin Brenda participated in our first Relay For Life. When we got there the first thing we had to do was set up. It took us about 2 hours to set up a tent and it wasnt even a good one ended up hold it together by using half a roll of duck tape. Then once the walking started me, Lance and Brenda ealked beside my mom for a little bit. My mom is the one who suffers from breast cancer so we participated in her honor. And just so you all three of us were 16 at the time. Well anyways as we were walking it started to rain but instead of making us want to stop more people actually started walking it was so wierd. After a few seconds the track was almost full of people walking. Then an announcement came over the loudspeakers and said the coolest thing ever; "The rain was unexpected but just like cancer we wont stop" In that day we must have walked over 20 miles in 9 hours. But it was still the best experience I've ever had
