They didn't time the walkers, but we couldn't resist the numbers-I swear we didn't coordinate the pinkness, but I considered calling us the Pinksters

The night before the Race, Donna and I got a hotel in Stamford and went to see Sex in the City. We got up early and drove over to register for the race. The temperature promised to hit 90, but in connecticut the humidity was pretty benign. We had our 5K around New Canaan, a pretty, thankfully, flat town. Donna and I analyzed a few funny people, solved major world problems during our walk. As we appropriated the finish line. a playful man offered to hose us down-something we both took him up on.

I thank you all for the financial and emotional support that got me to the race. Days like these offer inspiration that has got to offer healing.


The race was a success. thanks to all your generosity, I raised $2500. The MMRF raised $500,000. Kathi Guisti gave an inspirational talk about her own fight against MM adding as she stood across from New Canaan HS that she took her daughter to start HS this past fall something she didn't think she'd be around for when she was diagnoses in 99.
