In tears

My Friend Christy ran in the Race for the Cure over the weekend. She ran in honor of my grandmother who recently finished treatment for breast cancer and lots of other people she's never even met. So, I sit here in tears watching the little video she put together (I'd link it, but her blog is private due to her hubby's job, etc) and seeing my Grandma's name with the others that Christy ran for. How special that she was able to do that.

THANKS CHRISTY!

By the way, she's a great runner! Here's the info from her blog on how she did:

  2. Oh stop it you guys! Seriously!

    It was MY honor Jess. I honestly think having those names on me and with me throughout the race is what pushed me across the finish line; with a personal best time to boot! xo so thank YOU xo
