Hot Chocolate Run 2009
This photo was taken at the finish line of the Hot Chocolate Run 5K, around 11am on December 5, 2009.
The Hot Chocolate Run is an annual event that raises money to benefit Safe Passage, a domestic violence shelter/support organization.
My family has been participating in the walk that happens before the run for the last few years. I always admire the runners braving the cold.
At the end, the first 3000 or so people who registered get special coffee mugs designed by local cartoonist, Hilary Price ("Rhymes with Orange"), and there is always tons of hot chocolate with mini marshmallows for everyone.
At this point, we have 3 sets of the mugs. :)
This is the photo I submitted to day_on_earth, a community I really love because it gives me a varied view of the world, from the perspective of the average person, and reminds me how small the world really is. I wish more people would join it and post...especially my friends! I'd love to see what your "every day" looks like, wherever you are.
