Komen Race for the Cure Packet


As the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure 5K is quickly coming up on Sunday, it’s time to open my packet and examine the goodies.  As someone who has been on packet pickup detail for my team, it was convenient having the packets sent to my doorstep.  I can tell that it was ready and stuffed in advanced and slapping the address label—with my race information on it—must have been the last step before the packet made its way to the post office.  Such a system shows that the Susan G. Komen Foundation is an efficient and experienced organization!



The packet contains a race shirt, race bib, and a Friends for the Cure Donations Program handout.  I haven’t found the safety pins for the bib, but I have literally misplaced the pins from packets more times than I've pocketed them.  I expect to soon find the little stamp bag taped to the back of something or hiding amongst my things.  It’s a beautiful shirt, with the foundation’s cascading pink ribbon for Breast Cancer Awareness center focus.  Nothing, short of nothing, is cooler on a sunny day than running in a white shirt; there is no better cause than helping to fight breast cancer.  I can’t wait!
