Today was the BrockStrong 5K to raise funds for the BrockStrong Foundation, formed by our friends Lori and Roger in tribute to their son. The foundation serves the dual purposes of raising awareness about organ donations, and providing scholarships for gifted music students, who otherwise would not be able to afford the additional training they need to hone their craft.
It was a perfect day, and the venue was lovely.
Although I had originally intended to run the 5K, I decided instead to walk with my friends, chatting and visiting as we went - even if that meant my finishing time was just short of an hour.

The whole gang plans a strategy.

My beard matches your hair, Debra Falvo!
I didn't know Brock, but considering my motivation, I have a feeling he would be very proud of my finishing time.

The morning was a winner all the way around. This event is for an important cause, we had fun conversation with friends, enjoyed exercise on a beautiful day and had live music that included one of the scholarship recipients. I have a few years on you Christopher, I have earned everyone of those little silver hairs.
