Thousands of people showed up to run, participate and support survivors of breast cancer and those who have lost their battle to it.  I was one of about 150-200 survivors....probably one of the youngest ones there.
I lined up in my pace range only to figure out that nobody else was paying any attention to the markings.  The vast majority of people were walking the 5K.  I had to weave and dodge through the crowd of walkers just to get to a place where I could actually jog.  Next time, I will move closer to front of the pack in order to be able to start running right away.
Here I am all sweaty and pink-faced, wearing my special survivor medal. My time was about 42 minutes....hey...at least I "ran" it!

congratulations. I thought you looked awfully fresh and fit in the first picture - so I'm guessing it's a "before."
yep...most definitely "before"!
