My Mix of 6

I am really excited about participating in my first Color Run .  I am forming, what was originally a Mother-Daughter team, has now turned into a Mother-Child team.   I couldn't be more thrilled about it either!  I have wanted to do this run for a few years now and have finally taken the time to build a team.  Seriously, doesn't this just look like a blast?  I can't wait for our team to form and to run together.  We are going to have a blast!

Last year, I did my very first 10k, along side my sweet friend "D" for the SHOC walk , in honor of my husband's two cousins who have since passed from ovarian cancer.  "D" was such a motivator, pusher, cheerleader, while being a great running partner.   ...
