Well it is no secret, I am not much of a runner! Sooo, what else is there to do but get other non-runners together for a cheering party for the runners! That is just what we did! On Saturday, April 13th was the annual Monument 10k, this race in Richmond where 30,000+ people gather together to run/walk a 10k down Richmond's historic Monument Avenue.

| This is just a few of the 30,000+ racers! |

| A person in costume, there were not too many! |

| Cheering for the runners! Ryan Gosling says "Hey girl, I'm waiting for you at the finish line." |
 |
| Our cheering group: from Left to Right: Rachel, Lila, CJ, Elaine, Me (with poster), Kristi, Kathryn (a runner too but chose to cheer with us this year), Erica (actually is a runner but came to cheer anway), Aubrey, Allison (also a runner), and Paul! |
All in all, we had a great time. Near the end, a lady from the cheering contest came up and asked us if we were registered as a cheering/spirit team. Unfortunately we were not (I found out the day before the race that there was a prize for that--but the deadline to register was 2 weeks ago). But she said to register next year cause she thought we had great outfits! So here is hoping for a spirit win next year!
Next year we totally need to enter the cheering contest!!! We would win! :)
