Portland To Coast '13...

Another AMAZING weekend of PTC (Portland To Coast) is in the books.  This year it was actually moved south to Oaks Park for the start line, so we added a couple of miles and it was 132 miles this year.

This photos just dumped in, no particular order.  

I love these gals/guys and if it wasn't for Relay, I wouldn't know any of them...and in a sweet twist of faith, Mary and I found each other both at the starting line and exchange #18....Mary is the reason I started Relay, so it's always great seeing her during PTC too!

Added bonus this year, our TSP (Team Slow Poke) team raised $10,700 for ACS and this was AFTER we all had fundraised for Relay all year long!

Janet, Cheryl, Leann and I after getting our ACS VIP medals!

Volunteering at the Lacamas 1/2 marathon...

A whole bunch of us, like 20+ volunteered this morning in Camas.  The annual Lacamas 1/2 marathon and 5k was happening.  We all arrived by 6:15am.  The best part, besides hanging out with awesome people and cheering on the runners/walkers?  Our Portland To Coast Team got a donation of $1,300 for the American Cancer Society for volunteering!  YAHOO!!
Sarah, Libby, myself and Jill.  Our version of "Abbey Road"

Part of Team Slow Pokes and Team Slow Pokes Too volunteering...
Sea of color going up "the hill"

Amanda is on her way...doing the 1/2 - she ROCKED it!
