Think Pink - Race for the Cure

Well Mom and I and several other friends ventured downtown for the Race for the Cure. I have done it for several years now but this year was extra special because my mom, who is currenly battling breast cancer was able to join me. The weather was absolutely beautiful which made the day even better! There is pink galore, as you can see!


40, 000+ people
