Thank you to everyone on Team SOL for braving the cold and
being a part of an amazing experience. It is certainly one that I will never
forget. Comprised of 14 SOL customers and 17 SOL employees, Team SOL raised
an astonishing $11,220!
Gearing up (and warming up) for the race |
Before the race, we met up in “Team Land” for coffee,
bagels, and donuts (not the breakfast of champions but it was a welcome snack
at 7am!). The 5K walk/run started at 8am – Just in time for the sun to come
out. Seeing the countless pink tribute bibs worn by those walking “in
celebration of” and “in memory of” was incredibly moving having lost my mother
to breast cancer four years ago.
Off we go! |
Seeing thousands of Denverites whose lives have been touched
by breast cancer was inspiring. The sea of pink tutus, wigs, and feather boas
around the Pepsi Center added to the celebratory atmosphere. Cheerleaders from
local high schools, firemen, and musician lined the race course (though it felt
more like a parade route!).
Up one last hill to the finish |
Warmed up and energized from our 3+ mile walk, Team SOL
regrouped after crossing the finish line. We all had such a great time at Race
for the Cure that we’re already looking forward to next year!
Team SOL celebrates! |
