RACE For The Cure
What an amazing sight it was to see (literally) thousands of people in downtown Houston racing for a cure for breast cancer. Pink Power was virtually in every nook & cranny as far as the eye could see.
Ryan dropped me off & ventured to find a parking spot. I (nervously) headed into the crowd with hopes that after I finished I could locate Ry & Keedan.
If any of you have ever been to a 5K, usually the "goodies" or shall I put it the sponsors of the race give out their goods after the race, but not at this race. People were filling up bags full of samples, products etc... before the race even began. So I wasn't surprised when I finished the race that most of the "goodies" were already gone.
Before the race I was able to get a complimentary massage from a "Massage Envy" employee. Let me just say that it was WONDERFUL!!!!
The last few stretches til the finish line I spotted Ry & Keedan on the sidelines. It was so nice to see them and to have the possible stress of trying to find them later lifted away. Plus it was nice to have their support.
All in all it was a great experience. Next time I will definitely drink lots & lots of water and buddy up with someone that is running in the race (to make it a bit more enjoyable).
