I thought I would give an update on how things went on Saturday. I took until about now to be able to actually form into words what I felt and saw that morning at the walk for the cure.
We arrived at the Round up Center in Calgary at about 6:25 a.m thinking we would have time to run though a few things before we started. It took forever to find the right person to talk to and when we did find her she was so busy she pointed in the direction of the "stage" and ran off again.
We found someone else and asked where to set up our music and that is when they informed us that we couldn't use our own music they had some pre-selected, huge blow!
After everything was figured out and it was time to go on, we were terrified. The stage was very small and very high up, we didn't hear the music until we were standing on the stage so we had no idea how fast it was or how many beats per minute it was ( that is huge for a fitness Instructor), and we had no idea what we were going to do because the routine was to our music so we wung it.

It turned out amazing, we had one girl figuring out what to do and the rest followed. Everything that possible felt like it was going wrong was all washed away when you looked out into a sea of a thousand smiling faces and remembered that reason we were there.
At one point we were doing a side step movement and all I could see was a mass of pink moving from side to side, It took all my will power to hold it together at that moment. Between all the people in pink, the music, seeing runners carrying the running shoes of runners from past years who have past away, and the genuine energy it was so over whelming but perfect.

My parents are out for the week so I will post more next week.
