5K

I participated in the 5K walk/run today with the Canadian women's group. The 5K raised money for breast cancer research and the start was at the Château de Vincennes. What a great event! This year more than 14,000 participated in this event. Before the "race"...
Getting ready to go though the starting gate....


Wonderful views from the start...

And we're off...so many people ahead of us...as far as the eye can see...


Photo-op during the "race"...


Very picturesque walk..


And we made it!!! Only 1 hour and 11 minutes and 10 seconds after we started!!!


Celebrating at the finish line!



Merci beaucoup, Diane, for coordinating the "race" for us!!
