Race for Research

My good friend "Di" and I donned running apparel for a very special race -- a race designed to raise money for research on cholangiocarcinoma.  This word means cancer of the bile ducts.  It is a rare and very serious  cancer.  Our good friend and co-worker, "A" is fighting this cancer today.

So, we decided to race for "A!"  I crafted tu-tus for us to wear during the race in her honor.  I also made one for her too.  "A's" favorite colors -- are all bright, of course-- but in particular, she cited orange, purple and green.  So, I thought rainbow tulle was the perfect solution!  This photo was snapped pre-race.  It was an unseasonably chilly, and windy race morning!!
