*As an addendum to my previous post...it's not that I don't like hugs AT ALL. I like hugs from friends who I haven't seen (Summer and Kelly, you girls are fine!)...it's just those lingering hugs that just last too long...hee hee!! You know what I mean!!

The Race!
Today was the Race for the Cure! Our Cooper vs. Cancer team turned out to be such a success! We had 90 members and raised $2255!! If you remember in my previous post about this, my goal was 25 members and $1000 so we surpassed those goals quite easily! It took on a life of it's own! The high school got involved and it just turned out to be a really awesome event! There were a ton of people at the Civic Center this morning! My goal was to run the race (3.2 miles) in 40 minutes and I actually crossed the finish line at 35 minutes!! Kami finished in 31 minutes and Jana finished in 33. They have both been such amazing support for me over the past 9 weeks as we have worked up to running 3 miles. And now we are on to 5 miles!!

Way to go!! Very impressed. Maybe over Christmas or even Thanksgiving you can run with me!! I am also glad I got the ok to hug you, it will be short and sweet. Summer
Good for you! I am impressed you met your goal and you helped out those with Cancer. My grandmother had breast cancer and I have always thought the race for the cure was one of the best places to help out!
Thanks for letting me run with you guys! It was fun!
