So, we went for a walk yesterday.......

....with 10,000 of our closest friends.   The Ohio State University sponsored a very well organized 4 Mile Run/Walk for the benefit of breast cancer research.  The course wandered through the main roads on campus (mind you, the population at OSU exceeds that of Newark).  The sun participated occasionally.  The starting gate was in the parking lot at the Ohio Stadium.  The finish line was the fifty yard line inside of Ohio Stadium.  Much fun was had by all.

The walking contingent approaches the starting gate.  By this time
the elite runners were just finishing their four mile run.

And they are off.......................

We were walking, not running, but appreciated the support anyway

Entering the Horseshoe just like the players do.  Very cool

Finishing at the 50 Yard Line.  If you could enlarge this photo enough,
you would be able to see me taking this picture on the Stadium scoreboard.
