Race for a Cure

Kansas City hosted its Susan G. Komen run today and 25,000 runners joined in to "Race for the Cure." My mother died of breast cancer in 2006, making this event extra special to me. The pictures speak for themselves, so enjoy.

My friend Debbie pins the

"In memory of My Mom"

sticker on my back.

A good friend always has your back.

There were so many runners

I had to wave to catch Jimmy's attention.

reading "In memory..." stickers at the start of the race.

That's when I started to cry.

The beautiful mass or runners.
