Walker, Walker, Walker!

So 13.1 miles later, and another Jimmy Fund Walk for Dana Farber is in the books!

Congratulations to Jackie and Annie for trekking the entire half marathon course, from Wellesley into downtown Boston.

Kudos also to Heather and John for joining their moms for the five-mile leg in from Boston College. Heather, as you can see, scored once again with the best socks of the day.

Thousands and thousands of walkers out there for a great cause.

Here's where Andrew and I caught up to the foursome in Brookline:
Mom and daughter, lending each other a hand:
The obligatory shot in front of the Citgo sign, which seemingly looms in front of the walkers for about 10 miles:

The finish:
A well-earned victory dash across the finish line:
The entire support team:Suprisingly, Andrew was able to find some food at the finish. Worry not folks, he won't waste away.
Again, congrats to all of today's participants, and here's hoping the money raised can help make a difference against this miserable disease. Way to go, hon!
