We participated in the Komen Race for the Cure this past Saturday. There were approximately 6000 people there (in lil' ole Lexington)! We were shocked at what a production it was. Each participant donated $20 to race, and many had others donate in addition to their entry fee. So - at the very least - $120,000 was raised that day! 75% stays in Kentucky and 25% goes to the national Komen foundation. Way to go Lexington!! We finished the 5k walk in about 50 minutes. Matt and I walked together the whole way, but - of course - on the home stretch Matt took off in a sprint so he finished about a minute ahead of me (ya bum)!
