Race for the Cure

This past Saturday, all of the Mier/Tabor siblings (minus myself) ran in the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5K in Atlantic Station. Ryan's sister, Andrea, was walking in it with some of her co-workers, so we decided to make it a family affair, especially since the race was for such a great cause.

I was the cheerleader/photographer for the morning, which was a lot of fun! I stood on the 17th Street bridge as the race started, and then was right at the finish line to yell their names and cheer them on their last few steps.

There were over 17,000 people that participated in the race! So needless to say, 17th Street was packed as the race was set to begin.

Ryan was really focused as he sprinted to the finish -

so focused that he didn't even see me!

After the race!

I was so proud of all of them as they came to the finish line. Ryan was really nervous about the race because we had driven the course a few days before, and it was extremely hilly. But he did an awesome job, despite having asthma! It was such a fun morning.
