โA DJ was spinning some jams for us to make it seem more like a techno rave than a 5K run! It was definitely a sight to see! Many people elaborated with their outfits: we saw a group of folks with neon green light-up afro wigs and another person with an outfit made entirely out of glow sticks! It was pretty bizarre if you took a step back and looked at what we were doing! But, we were having fun! [...] We jogged our way through some pretty awesome tunnels where people blew bubbles, laser light shows bounced off the ceilings, and strobe lights flashed about. Another tunnel had black lights shining, which made for a pretty cool effect! Because of these fun additions and the slow moving crowd, Beth and I managed to finish in approximately 31 minutes.โ
โThe day started out very warm, muggy ,and rainy. I arrived at Cleveland's Port Authority at 6:15 a.m.. The opening ceremony started at 6:30. It was a very emotional and energizing 30 minutes. There were many tears in the crowd as they spoke about breast cancer, survivors, those working through it and those who had passed. The walk started at exactly 7:00 a.m. [...] There were SOOOO many people cheering us on. Complete strangers, Saying Thank you for walking. The signs thanking us for walking and raising the money for a cure. [...] I was grateful that my brother came to visit. He was at the 12-14 mile area. He walked some with me, and that was awesome.โ
