Just the stats:
71,802 participants(that doesn't include volunteers btw)
1,090 teams
4,500 Survivors
over $3.4 million raised!
It is the largest Komen race in the world!!!! And it truly is an amazing event like no other that I have ever experienced :-)
Here are a couple pictures from when we were in the crowd!
There are people all the way up to where you see the end of that street! Basically as far as you could see either direction, east or west there were people...it was AWEsome!
And then looping back and heading east towards the Arch....a little bit thinner as people slow down and pause :-) It was hot!Everyone on our team did an awesome job! And thanks to everyone who supported the race in any way, in fact if you support any of the races-thanks :-)
So that was the crazy Sat-awesome and crazy!
Then my in-laws arrived for a too short but very nice visit. The girls had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed entertaining Nana D and Papa G. They are in fact planning a newscast to record and send to them next week!
We then went to the pool for the first time of the season yesterday and it was wonderful! And I have gotten up and walked several times, but not today-it stormed! Instead I did a ballet workout and so I am pretty happy with the way the summer is starting.
I do have one tiny issue...the constant bickering and fighting and screaming and fuming.....
Why can't we all just get along?
Oh well, I guess that is just as much a part of summertime as everything else!
Have a good one-
Blog ya later-
