This past Saturday, some friends and myself participated in the annual Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event. This walk raises awareness and funds for the Fort Wayne Women’s Bureau as part of an initiative to stop rape, sexual assault and gender violence. I believe the The Bureau reported close to 500 men walked the mile this year.

It was actually moving looking around seeing all these people supporting such a worthy cause. The walk was obviously a mile but what probably seemed like ten if you were to ask my size 13 feet.
