Here we are! We walked the Race for the Cure 5k this morning! It started out a little chilly, but the sun warmed things up pretty fast. You couldn't help but get excited as you watched all the people in pink with such great spirits! It doesn't matter that we all had to walk an extra mile to the start and back, because we were all there for a great cause, and that is all that mattered.
Here is my handsome husband in the blue....go Brian! ....just kidding!
There were over 19,000 people who turned out to race. It was so overwhelming to look and see a sea of people in front of you and then you turn around and there were just as many behind you. There were also 605 elite runners, which means that you have to run the race in 14-15 minutes...a 4 or 5 minute mile....maybe next year! Considering that we made in in 10 seconds short of an hour! But with 3 strollers, it was hard to keep a steady pace....we would have taken out some ankles if we had really tried to get a good time!
