And they're off!
Mood:  energetic





Well the race Saturday went well. My friend Marie and I both walked it and my other friend Carol ran it. We managed to do it in 58 minutes and 2 seconds. Woo Hoo!

There were so many people there. They said on the news about 20,000 people showed up to race or give support. At one point we got to the top of a hill and could view the sea of people in front and in back of us. It brough tears to my eyes. The race managed to make over 1 million dollars. Most of which will go towards breast cancer research as well as to educate people on how to check themselves for lumps.

It was a worth while day and I feel like I really accomplished something.

The rest of the weekend was spent relaxing by the pool. It was so nice here Saturday and Sunday. Well except for the rain showers Sunday night.

I did manage to injure my lower leg and foot on Sunday. I was getting ready and I turned around not knowing my cat was right by my foot. I tripped over him, twisting my ankle in the process. *sigh* I am hoping it will heal by Wednesday so that I can take on my co-workers in the Big Badminton Challenge.

I finally purchased a data stick so I can bring my picture files into work and load them (work computer is MUCH faster)I am working on uploading some photos now and as soon as they are loaded I will post them here.
