Running for a Cause

Last year I participated in the 5k run for our local chapter of the Susan G. Komen Race for a Cure. It was an rewarding experience. I was amazed by the thousands of people who came out for the event not only to to run or walk the course but to also stand on the sidelines and cheer everyone on. I am again participating and this time I have recruited a friend. It will be great to have someone I know along side me pushing me to make it to the end of the race. Perhaps we will even manage to get more than $50 donated this year....that was my only fail. My goal last year was $125 and I am going to try for that again this year.

So check it out, I know there are runs throughout the year so if you are interested in running/walking and want to do it for a cause check out your local events.
