Run for the Wounded Warrior

11/14/2010 by Deanna +

Yesterday, I ran a 5-mile run for the Wounded Warrior Project in Pittsburgh’s North Park. According to the website, the mission of the Wounded Warrior Project is to raise awareness for the needs of these injured men and women, to help these aid these members, and provide programs to meet their needs.

It was a nice race, and of course benefited a great cause. I even PR’d North Park and broke 50 minutes, which was good because it was freezing the first mile or two. Below are some photos from along the way. If you’d like to help the Wounded Warrior Project, visit http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org.

    I can feel the brisk, hard-to-breath, I-can’t-feel-my-toes NE air just looking at those pics! Eek. Congrats on your PR – and what a wonderful cause!

    If you read the second comment in a hillbilly voice like I did in my head when I wrote it, it’s a much more powerful statement. Also, I know it should be “well” and not “good”. Just sayin… ๐Ÿ™‚
