Saturday Adam ran the "Cell to Well" 5k. It's a race for The Backstreet Club, which is where he has gone the past couple of years for recovery meetings. The club is completely self funded by it's members, and in the summer, less people show up for meetings, so less money is coming in. Every spring they do Cell to Well to raise money to keep the club going. Recovering addicts and their family and friends can run either a 15k or a 5k. They are asked to try to get sponsers to donate to the club. Adam and I raised $305!! Thank you to our family and friends who donated so generously....we couldn't have gotten to where we are today without your love and support!!!
Adam came in 3rd, and I am sooooo proud of him! Not just for the race, but for the leaps of progress he's made in his life. I love you babe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
