I just wanted to let you all know that you ladies were very much with me yesterday as I participated in the "Global" (formerly "National") Race for the Cure in DC, with over 40,000 others. It's an amazing, moving, emotional and yes, even fun event, and I wanted to share a few photos with you.


Participants getting lined up before the start. The Mall was filled! Hurray!

The starting line - you can see the team from the German Embassy in front there - most embassies have teams in the race.

This is always a source of amazement to me (in terms of the sheer numbers of people out there). The ones on the right of the divider are at just past the 2 mile point, while the runners and walkers on the left are less than one mile into the race. When I was at that point (under a mile), those on the other side were literally the front-runners - racing to the finish line about 12 minutes after the start! Blinking

I'm still kicking myself for not getting a photo of this guy - we saw him at the Survivors' Tent after the race, and didn't know his story at the time, but thought he looked AMAZING! Thumbs up Knowing the story behind his "getup" makes it even more meaningful: http://www.wtop.com/?nid=46&sid=2410519 Lovey dubby
