What a crazy few weeks we have had! In April, Ferfer called a friend in the Colonial Road Runners. They had an opening for a 5k Grand Prix race and need directors. She and I became co-directors with less than a month to pull the race together. We did it with a lot of help from our wonderful sponsors, family, and friends.And thank you to all the racers that came out, 1 milers and 5kers. We greatly appreciate your participation!
Half of race participants money goes to St. Baldrick’s and counts towards Team Jesse Grace’s head shaves. Click Here to see our team members 🙂
We will have pictures from the race in the next few days. Thank you Gressit Photography for taking pictures! I have two here that I took. Click Here to see results 🙂 At Jesse’s Facebook page, we have some pictures of the kids: http://www.facebook.com/wannabebellied
In this picture, our racers are waiting for the Go!
And here they are off and running 🙂
We were really lucky to be invited on WVEC 13 to promote the 5k.
Here is the video below:
I just wanted to tell you that it was really fun being a volunteer for Jesse Graces Journey and it really meant a lot. Shes the sweetest girl in the world and thank you so much for letting me be a part of her life, even for a few hours.
Thanks,
