We headed to downtown Phoenix bright and early (6:00am) on 10-10-10 to participate in the Race for the Cure. Thankfully, we beat the crowd in regards to finding a parking space. This event grows a little bigger every year; which is great since it means more people supporting breast cancer awareness/research. Hopefully, all this support will lead to a cure in the very near future!! 
Can you believe this is only a portion of the 31,000 people who attended this year?
ASU was very well represented today; we took a moment for a photo with Sparky. Along the walk route students from ASU were handing out water, which was greatly appreciated since AZ is was still experiencing record high temps. It had to be in the high 80s/low 90s by the time we reached the finish line.
There is never a dull moment waiting for a walk to start when Tiffany and Brittany are together; they find numerous ways to amuse themselves :)
Ready to walk with stylists from one of our sponsors, Salon Zen. Thank you for joining us this morning!
Making a little music prior to the walk.
After a couple of hours waiting and entertaing those around us, it is finally time to cross the starting line...let the 5K begin!!
Still excited, the heat hasn't really hit yet...
The finish line is finally in sight!!
Let's cross the finish line and find some cold water! Can't wait to do it again next year, although I will hope for cooler weather.
