Komen Race 06

Today was my 3rd Komen Race participation. I started this tradition back in 2003 and plan to keep this going for a long time. The last two years I ran the non-competitive race, but this year I opted for the walk instead. Long story...I'll get to that in another blog.
A lot of ppl turned out for this years run. It seems like it gets larger every year. Today was so crowded. I don't remember last year being so big.
The weather started off muggy and got hotter as the morning came along. Henry and his wife was there along with their 1 year old baby boy. What a cute lil guy. He was so friendly. He wasn't like the kind of kid that cries at everything. He was very playful. Mary and her daughter also showed up this year. I spent the entire race with them. It was their first time participating. It was fun hanging out with her and her daughter Cairyn. We walked the whole way except towards the end when Cairyn decided to start running so we ran all the way to the finish line.
I had fun this year. Mary was great company. I needed the company. I would have hated to walk by myself. Would have been so boring. Running was out of the question for me, so I'm glad that Mary was there to keep me company.
