We run for my mom

This is my mom. we are laughing at the fact that the Pocket is walking backwards into a group of 7 year old kids and he doesn't know it...yet



Note to self: wearing big sunglasses and a hat at the same time is not cool.
Today was my first Race for the Cure. My work had organized a team and i couldn't pass up the opportunity. besides, my mother is a two time survivor of breast cancer and she is the strongest person i know. So Hot Pocket, my mom, and myself, jumped into the car and battled the traffic to attend this awesome event. I don't think we were prepared to be as moved and as motivated as we were when we got there. Over 16,000 people attended, the largest crowd ever, and the electricity and passion from the group was incredible! Everyone who participated had a story and a reason to run for support. We run for you, Mom.
