Jingling All the Way


For her fourth 5K race, Mandy chose to support a good cause, celebrate the Christmas holiday, and stay close(ish) to home. So this morning we took a brief PATH ride to Manhattan and a little stroll down to Battery Park (at the southern tip of the island) for the umpteenth-annual Jingle Bell Run/Walk for Arthritis. 

Just to clear the air: yes, we wore jingle-bells; no, I didn’t win; and yes, Santa was there—and, as Mandy will tell you, he was a very good one. 

At this point, I would normally let the pictures tell the story, but since I forgot to charge the batteries for my camera and only have a few snapshots from Tim’s phone, the burden of this post will fall on … the writing.
