Alex's 5K

My friend( Belin Jenkins) and I ran Bear Creek Alex's 5K.  It was a fun little race with a BBQ after.  Alex is a young man who died with autism,  his parents do this race in honor of him every year. I have a few friends with children who have autism.  A cure would be a huge blessing.   All proceeds go to research for autism.

 It is sad for me that my running days are slowing down.  After 20 years of running my knees are paying the price.  Glucosamine helps a little, but I just have to take it easy and run 1-2 times a week.  I have always loved to run.  There is nothing like hitting the pavement with your iPod for some "me" time.  It was a fun afternoon with a good buddy!
