2008 Race for the Cure: On Your Mark, Get Set…Go!

This Sunday a few of us from the company are going to participate in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure®. I’m sure some of you are familiar with this event because they are held in so many different cities throughout the United States, but for those of you who have never heard of it, Race for the Cure® is an annual 5k run/walk race where all of the proceeds go towards finding a cure for breast cancer.

To gear up for this Sunday’s race we’ve gathered donations, created our t-shirts and today we’re assembling pink “Support the Cure” awareness ribbons to pass out at the race Sunday morning. And don’t worry, I won’t forget to pack a camera. I can’t wait to take tons of pictures so that I can post them and show you early next week how exciting this experience was. The good news is that this event gets A LOT of attention. I’m expecting this to be a pretty amazing, emotional experience. I’ve been told by race organizers that participation has already increased from last year’s race. I can’t wait to hear final numbers Sunday night. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some stretches to do.
