(PS I have this shirt, and I always get a whole SLEW of comments when I wear it! You can purchase similar ones here)
I signed up to do Indianapolis' Race for the Cure this year! I'm really excited about it.... it will be my first major "race" and while it's only a 5k, and I do not plan on running it, I am still excited for the meaning behind it.This is very out of my element. While I did track in high school, I mainly did sprints & long jump, I'm by no means a distance runner! I hope I don't disappoint any of you by saying that I will be walking, not running, in this event!Watching my grandma battle cancer was one of the hardest things I ever had to witness, although she was throwing her punches against Leukemia, breast cancer is just as scary of a battle! I decided to join in the fight this year in honor of all the brave women who are fighting it, and to all the families who have lost women they loved due to this terrible bully!

Good for you! I am doing the Race for the Cure too, although I will be "attemtping" to run haha!
Yay for Race for the Cure. I signed up for it last year, but I was sick and couldn't go. I ran my first mile in a long while last night and I am paying for it today. Good luck!
