So I collected some wishes to run with this year, as I did in 2018--not as many as that year, though, because I didn't fundraise really. This year I wrapped the wishes around paperclips and then safety-pinned them to my jacket. They looked like this:

(The words you see aren't the words of the wishes: they're the words printed on the back of the sheet of paper I printed the wishes on.)



As I mentioned in a locked entry, I wasn't able to be at home--and therefor to participate in the actual race--on Saturday,** so I ran the 5 k where I am, in my dad's town.

This is a selfie before taking off:



And here's a shot my dad took:



LOL, and here's a selfie after finishing:



You would think with that face I must have been burning up the suburban streets, but actually I ran at a stately pace of about 11.05 minutes per mile--my overall time was 35-something minutes.

All your wishes stayed attached to my sleeve! May they all be realized!

Meanwhile, the run garnered $793,721 to help people dealing with domestic violence. And [personal profile] wakanomori, co-member of Team Mompirri, ran the race in 20 minutes, 58 seconds. Now ~ that's ~ burning up the streets!
