Race for the Cure


No, your eyes are not deceiving you.....that is Hannah running and she actually has a smile on her face. It was just over 6 months ago when Hannah and I ran a 5k at her school, which inspired her to start working out with a personal trainer and get her butt in shape. Her trainer set a goal for her to run today's Race for the Cure in under 30 minutes and though she was doubtful that she could do it, she defied all odds and prevailed (and w/o any whining at all)! Aside from meeting this goal, the race marked the beginning of Hannah's journey towards the Breast Cancer 3-day walk in Atlanta this coming October. If any of the 4 readers of this blog feel so inclined, they can make a donation towards Hannah's fundraising goal by clicking here. I don't know that we'll be rushing out to run another race anytime soon (actually I am running the Peachtree Road Race, but that is mainly for the cool t-shirt), but it was definitely a neat experience and surprisingly I didn't have to make any pit stops in the port-o-jon despite my pre race meal the night before.
