5, 27, 905

Yup those are my numbers for today!

5 - That's the 5Km I ran today in the CIBC Run For The Cure

27 - That's the number of minutes I ran my 5Km in for the CIBC Run For the Cure. I was aiming for 35 minutes so 27 is wayyyy better!

905 - That's the number of dollars I raised for Breast Cancer Research! Next year I'm going to raise $1000!

Aren't those just an awesome set of numbers?


Here's Christin, Todd and I just before we headed off to the starting lines (Todd & I to the runners, Christin to the walkers).


The official safety/pace car for the race (that bump is my pack that carries my epipen, puffer, cell phone, etc. in case I have an allergic reaction while running)


Crowds of people! 8,500 people ran and $1.5M was raised locally.
