Yesterday I photographed this fun and inspiring charity snowshoe race with Kay Beaton. The Tubbs Romp to Stomp is a Susan G. Komen event sponsored by Tubbs snowshoes, where racers ran or walked around the Nordic Center in Frisco, Colorado. About 2,200 racers turned up in pink clothing, costumes, wigs, or tutus, and raised over $80,000 for breast cancer research.

All day I alternated between laughter and tears. What a brilliant way to raise money for charity and to show support for those affected by cancer. Also I want to take a moment to say for my millionth time that I love Colorado. It was such a great day yesterday.
