Race for the Cure!!!

Here we are in preparation for the big race. For those of you that were not aware, Marybeth and I signed up to run/walk a 5k. It was in SLC and started at the Gateway mall. We both got $20 t-shirts and the opportunity to run as well as support something so great.









There were a "few" people there for the big day, and we even spotted Ronald McDonald, whom we saw participating in the Run. There were so many people there, and there were many survivors as well as those that were going through cancer as they "Race for the Cure!!"
It might be hard to tell but this is me. As we made our way to the beginning of the race we noticed a lot of booths with various "freebies" that they were giving out. One of which happened to be the lovely cloth draped across my forehead, as well as a yogurt smoothie.
Doesn't she look like a very cute runner? I personally think that Marybeth sports the pink cloth better than I could. Marybeth scored some apples and caramel from McDonald, and that was really tasty.
We really cleaned up, we were almost running from booth to booth filling our arms with goodies. I must admit it may not be the best thing right before a race. But I am holding some Sun chips in a pink bag as well as some Smart Start cereal. We were glad we went.
Then the race started. There were so many people we didn't know what to do. We kind of took or time, running and walking, and most of all enjoying the experience. We passed all three mile markers and came to the home stretch. It was so much fun.

Here is an action shot of us trying to weave in and out of people. It was a little hard but we tried our very best. We had such a fun time, and hopefully it helped with the future in providing a cure .
