Race for the Cure

Last weekend Elly ran the 5K in our local Race for the Cure. It was a zoo with about 50,000 participants, many dressed up in pink for the occassion. Total funds raised has not been disclosed however it was clearly over $1 million based on the number of participants and the many corporate sponsors. It is a good cause and this is a legit charity, so it is great to see so much support.

All along the course there were bands set up to entertain the runners (and walkers) as they made their way through downtown Columbus. Along one two block stretch, Harleys were lined and revving their engines. It sounded cool but it was hard to breath through all the fumes.

Picture of the day goes to a rather large Harley rider who was giving the runners a high five.
