Race for the Cure

Today was Race for the Cure in Las Vegas!  Laurie and I joined the 12,000+ participants.  We raced in memory of Laurie's mom, Linda Potter Snow, who we lost nearly 7 years ago and in support of our niece Tami - who had a double mastectomy recently and is going through chemo. 


We met one of Laurie's professors there, Dr. Colleen Peterson, who was racing in memory of her dear friend Kath.


I opted to do the mile walk, so I could be at the finish line when Laurie arrived and, of course, take pictures!

Just finished stretching for the race!

About to cross the finish line - under 35 minutes for the 5K!

Then Laurie went back to walk with Dr. Peterson.


You should all come join us next year . . . because it is Las Vegas, so there are perks here that you won't find anywhere else!


It is wonderful when people get together to work for something that makes life better!
