a few weeks ago i did something fairly amazing for me! i ran in the susan g. komen 5k. big for me seeing as how i am not a runner (although working hard to change that!) here are some of the fun ladies i ran with, before we ran...
and here we are post-run! all hot and red. or i guess pink would be a better shade, huh? i completed in just over 29 minutes. not too horrid for a first-timer. running was amazing. i ended getting in my own zone, and not really staying with my pack, but i would at times be behind a whole wall of runners wearing shirts all saying the same thing : in remembrance of...
the same person. several times i choked up, and started crying. it was really hard to run, but then i would remember my amazing aunt who beat the cancer twice, and think "there is no way i can stop when she never did!" i am truly blessed to have been able to run, and have great friends who motivated me to participate in the first place! you guys rock!!

Way to go Christy. Now you can run for Daddy to, even though it's not breast cancer. I think everyone in the family should be in training to support him.
You were such a little speedy! So great to run with you!
This was so much fun! You are a little Speedy Gonzales!
