Race for the Cure 2010

Last weekend Jake and I tied on our running shoes and headed downtown to run in the Portland Race for the Cure! Gerber was sponsoring a team for employees and family and we decided to join in the fun. We were a little nervous that we would get rained on since it was POURING on Saturday night. But when the alarm went off at 5:30 on Sunday it had stopped and thankfully held out until we were getting on the train to come home after everything was over. We were both super excited about our times - I got a personal best at 25:36 and Jake did too (even though this was his first real race!) at 22:34!! After the run we walked around the booths that were set up and then headed to the meeting spot to find the Gerber team. At the end of the day we ended up running one 5K and walking another! Plenty of exercise for that early on a Sunday morning!


Jake wearing pink had to be documented!


There were In Memory Of signs to wear so of course I had to dedicate this one to Tutu!

It was a good day for a run and a great cause.
