Race for a Cure

This weekend the whole Alley-McPherson clan ran in the Race for a Cure. We have been running this race for the past several years and have really enjoyed supporting this cause. As many of you all know, my mom had breast cancer and beat all the odds to be here today. I run this race for my mom who has shown incredible strength, unwavering faith, unquestionable love and amazing endurance through a time in her life when she could have given up. She is an amazing mother and the absolute least I can do is to run by her side in this race year after year to show my support and thanks for her and what she went through. We had a wonderful race and look forward to many more years of celebrating!

Here is Alley the night before the race - going out for a pre-race walk Mimi and Alley enjoying the weather (and the rocks in the driveway!)
