Race for the Cure

On November 4th a team from my church got together to support breast cancer research, by participating in The Race for the Cure. Here are some pictures of the day...
Getting ready...
The team...Our survivors!! Melody and Jocelin. The men...The women...
I love Austin.These are my two favorite ballerinas...they really are professional ballerinas!! How cool is that?!The timed runners started on the Congress street bridge....we were not on that bridge! We were with the walkers!So Melody decided that she didn't feel up to doing the entire 3 miles...so to support her...yeah...to support her...we joined her in cutting through where the 1 mile mark was ... for kids...and families...and us! But it was a little funny to then be joined up with the timed runners sweating and running hard...as we leisurely walked.... :) But we made it strong through the finish line!! Here is Melody doing a victory run through!Gotta love the pink port-a-potties!Melody got special treatment because she is a survivor AND she worked so hard that 1 mile!I mean...seriously....some MAJOR special treatment!This guy was the scariest part of the race for me...he kept looking at me. It was freaky.If you want to read more about Melody go here.
