Again, THANK YOU to those who sponsored me in the Komen Sacramento Race for the Cure.  With a little help from Yod, I dragged my sorry butt out of bed at 6:15am.  Any time before 7:30am is WAY too early for this girl!  But we had to be at the Race by 8:00am, which meant leaving the apartment by 7:00am. 

The shirts I designed turned out pretty nice.  I was very disappointed in the womens sizing though.  The shirts ran 1-2 sizes small.  Luckily, I decided to try on my shirt last night and found this out.  I washed the three womens shirts and stretched them as they dried, so they actually fit decently.  One hurdle down.

Parking was a pain, but we found a spot that wasn't too bad.  I couldn't get all the way to the venue, but I know next year that I can park at the venue for free AND I can park even closer than I did.  We still ended up having to walk nearly a mile to our team meeting place, and the bathrooms I chose so that everyone could change... were closed.  Everyone just changed in place (my sister and girlfriend-in-law (ha ha) had tank tops on anyway), so it all worked out in the end.

The race started, and we might be on TV -- a TV cameraman for one of the local channels had his camera pointed right in our faces -- it was funny!  We walked and walked... a good time was had by all.

I even got a little color!
