Race for the Cure

On Saturday, May 17th, The Express Lane team of 12 either ran or walked for Susan B. Komen Race for the Cure (breast cancer). It was a gorgeous day with over 8,000 people running or walking.

Carolyn (class of '74), our assistant swim coach, had a time of 31:22 and placed 17th in her age group. Her daughter Erin ran along with her Mom. Jess (class of '08) raced her first 5K ever and beat her goal of 40 minutes, she ran it in 38 minutes. I also ran the 5K and placed 30th in my age group with a time of 27:37, a personal best as well!

The Express Team also raised over $600 that goes directly towards Breast Cancer research and education.

Overall, it was a great experience and I can't wait until next year!
Maybe you can join us next year?

Pictures will be posted soon...
