Conquering Cancer

Team Constie’s Resilience

Thanks to the many who participated, contributed, or were there in spirit for the Constie’s Resilience Team at the Komen Race for the Cure in  Washington, DC on Saturday June 5th. What an AMAZING race! We had a great turn-out and special thanks to Chris and Ariadne for organizing it and making it happen and to the many others who helped in so many other ways. Also, thanks to all those who woke up so early!  Thanks also to Duncan Brown who very generously made beautiful lavender T-shirts for our group!

From the picture above (and I know we’re missing people!) — Karl, Jennifer, Margaret, Chris, Carolyn, Jenny, (who’s in the white cap?), Jeremy, Becca, Constie, Rachel, Sally, Doreen, Jo-Lynn, Jim, Rebecca, Nancy, Jonathan?, Aaron?, Rick, Mary, Chris’s sister, (Chris’s friend from OSWER?) — I need your help with names. Also, please let me know if you were there but we failed to get you in the picture!  I know some of them include — Jan, Lisa and Nina. Help!

It was really an incredible time. The Komen folks we’re expecting 50,000 participants and I’m sure they must have had at least that. Lots of enthusiasm and energy! What a great event!

THANK YOU again to all! This is an incredibly worthwhile event that makes a DIFFERENCE!
