5K for a Friend

Once again, I'll admit 5Ks aren't my thing.

I've spent summers dodging a local 5K that the Williams B & B runs.

I'd find a volunteer job or watch L when she was little or magically disappear that weekend.

It was a tad different this year.

For the last few years, I spent my summer mornings sharing life with the ladies/mothers up there while the girls swam.

This year, there is one less mother. She passed away earlier this year from breast cancer.

The 5K was in her memory this year along with another great person.

The proceeds went to the American Cancer Society which is great.

G and I ran the race together. It drizzled and then rained. It was a lot of fun. G ran the entire time which was a huge step for her young age.

Moral of the Story: Chrissy loved to run; I think the 5K was therapeutic for a lot of people.
