Race for the Cure update

In a company meeting where the boss basically chewed everybody out for not working fast enough:
Boss: Sumeet, you're doing a great job. Thanks.
Me: Haha.. thanks.

I participated in the Race for the Cure this morning - a 5k walk/run to raise money for breast cancer research. I'm terrible at estimating crowds, but I'd say there were at least 5,000 people there (if not more).

I thought everyone in our group was going to walk the whole thing, but they decided it would be better to run most of it.

Yikes. Yeah, I'm really out of shape. That's the most I've run in a very, very long time. I'm sore right now and probably will be for a couple of days.

It was still a great event and I'm glad I went. They handed out all sorts of swag at the end too (wristbands, bananas, Popsicles, bagels, frisbees/fans) so that was pretty fun.

And what better way to end a charity event than a trip to get margaritas? We went to Cozymel's afterwards for lunch. I felt like quite the alcoholic as we waited outside for the restaurant to open just to get a margarita.. Oh, but our race t-shirts came in handy as the restaurant comped our desserts ;)
