Bellingham Jingle Bell Run 2010

The Jingle Bell Run is an annual fundraiser for the Arthritis Foundation.

The band kept us warm with lively tunes while we waited to start, and played on while we ran the 4-mile course.

Dogs, kids, and even a pig(!) joined the run this year.

Here I am at the finish, waving to my girls who were there to greet me with big smiles and hugs.
