On Saturday, Aaron and I participated in an event that is near and dear to my heart- The Susan G. Koman Race for the Cure. In college this was my sorority's philanthropy. We raised money for them and volunteered at the race, so I have alot of great memories from that. I also happen to have 2 aunts who are Breast Cancer survivors. It is such a worthy cause to support and it was amazing to see how many people came out. We heard there was around 17,000 people! Way to go OKC!Not only was I proud to support a great cause, I was also proud that I was able to finish the 5K! Ha! We started running several months ago and set this race as our goal. I am by no means a "runner", so while 5K was probably nothing to alot of the people at the race, it was a big deal for me! I had only one goal, to finish without walking- and I did it! Now, we've found another 5K that is at the end of November. Maybe this time I will actually be able to set a time goal for myself. We shall see!
P.S.- It was pretty cool that we also got to show off some of our O-State pride with these cool "Cowboys for the Cure" shirts!
