October 3, 2010 - CIBC Run for the Cure






Today Abby and I walked/ran the 5k CIBC Run for the Cure for Leandra. Abby decided on Weds of last week she wanted to go with me, so together we took off on a beautiful Sunday morning in Ottawa with 7000 or so other's dressed in pink for an amazing 5k. Everyone cheered for everyone else. At around 3kms Abby got tired so we cut through an area and joined the rest of the walkers. At about 4kms I was now walking for two as Abby was piggybacking! With 500m to go, Abby decided she wanted to run. As she took off for the finish, the volunteers (mostly highschool students) were high fiving her and cheering her on, she was so excited. She crossed the finish line with her arms up. So it wasn't much of a workout, it was great to be apart of something so special.






Until next year!
