There is an actual FEEL YOUR BOOBIES week and this is it. All you sisters in stitching know it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I didn't stitch anything pink but I am signed up for the 5K walk tomorrow. Hopefully I can get my fat little legs (seriously-long body/short legs) moving fast enough to finish under an hour.
The first 5K I WALKED and I stress WALKED!!! the 3-wheel police trike was behind me picking up the cones - how embarrassing. I finished under an hour but was the last lonely sole. The second 5K I did - I was so excited when I saw the Olympic style clock over the finish line clicking the seconds and I was like wow! I knocked off several minutes from my former time! Yeah. NOT! When I logged in the the Races to Run info, I found I only shaved off a mere 12 seconds from my previous 5K. At least I was not last at that one. The parents with strollers and kids in wagons and toddlers walking were behind me. So tomorrow I have hope.....there have to be grandmothers with walkers that I can walk faster than. I hope to one day be able to complete a 5K in under 50 minutes. Not realy big aspirations. Maybe tomorrow will be the day and maybe not........but more to the point, I will be out there walking for the cure and the rest of you should FEEL YOUR BOOBIES.....or maybe if you get lucky, have a 'friend' feel you boobies! lol I need to buy my *PINK* t-shirt today!

ReplyDeleteand, celebrate afterwards with a pink drink - cosmos, anyone?
At least you're walking...my chubby butt could use 1K (or more) and yet, here I sit....and love the "feel your boobs" and think this is an awesome "cause" month!
