Race for the Cure 2011

The Susan G. Koman Race for the Cure was this past weekend in St. Louis.  If you ever get a chance to do one of these, DO IT!  It is SO AMAZING!  There were 5 of us this year, and we had so much fun!  We enjoyed a wide array of MO weather though…everything from really nice and comfy, to raining, to super muggy and humid!  Typical MO though!  It really was neat to see so many people supporting the fight against breast cancer, and to see so many survivors!  The 5 of us that walked decided that next year we would run it!

Waiting for the race to start!  This year we joined a local radio station’s team and added to the nations largest team, over 7,600 people!!  Our team also raised over $211,000…way cool! (Because we joined a team, we got 2 t-shirts, Heather was the only one who wore the team shirt! Go Heather!)
