When Cathy and I walked that day, we were slower!!! As we passed everyone coming BACK, we decided we had walked enough and turned around! We were passing the Farmers Market and I said," they have the best swedish pancakes in there!".
So, we had the best swedish pancakes and then continued to the finish line. We didn't set any records, but we were happy. I remember that afternoon we went next door to our hotel and saw the movie Little Miss Sunshine!
So, if you want to be a sleepwalker .....

Hi Peggy, what a wonderful memory you have...I never heard of the sleep-walkers, but it sounds like my kind of event...I love the idea of pancakes at the half way point :)
ReplyDeleteI also looked at your Flowers for Cathy art...

Hi Peggy.
ReplyDeleteYou are certainly a part of my community!
Please explain, though. I get that you were in a 5K run/walk, but what is sleepwalker?
Yes, it is a bittersweet memory. It's lovely that your friend is still missed and alive in your memories! A wonderful cause for a 5K Run/Walk. It creates a true sense of community in the participants.
ReplyDeletea sleepwalker is a person who can't be at the event, but donates $35 and gets a t-shirt of the event and raises $!
ReplyDeletebeautiful example of community Peggy-really lovely...
ReplyDeleteA bittersweet memory, as you said. It is very touching - and yes, this is community.
