My Aunt Kaye is fighting lung cancer right now, so when the local hospital held a 5k/Half Marathon as a fund-raiser for cancer treatments, about 20 of my cousins and their spouses signed up. Liza and I originally signed up for the half-marathon, but I guess we are getting old because both of us had nagging injuries, so we switched to the 5k.
Here are a whole bunch of Barratt's at the 5k start.
Bruce and our friend Chris ran the half. Bruce killed his PR and loved the course (out of AF Canyon). I am counting on joining him next year.
After the race we all got together for breakfast.

Thanks to multiple chip timing errors, Liza and I received no official time. It seemed fine until Liza looked at the online results and realized she and I were first (her) and second in our age group. We might be feeling a little ripped off.

You showed up under the 1/2 marathon results. Check all of the categories.
No wonder I didn't see you higher in the canyon! Ha, ha! Yeah, right . . . like I would have seen you; you're fast as lightning and would have been way ahead of me anyways. Love and miss you! Let's hook up SOON!
I love running for a good cause. It always make the event that much more meaningful, especially with loads of loved ones and family to cheer you on.
