AIDS Walk 2010

Cindy, Amy & Jason at AIDS Walk 2010

If there’s any reason to give up our early Sunday morning, it’s gotta be for a good cause, & it doesn’t get better than the annual AIDS Walk up in San Francisco. At this year’s AIDS walk, 25,000 volunteer walkers raised $3 million. We were proud to a part of that number.

Cindy joined the Google walk team & tagged along with her fellow Googler Amy, her friend Jason & her little pomeranian Marco. As a member of her team, she raised funds toward AIDS research. Thanks to all her friends & family who sponsored her as a walker!

We walked away (pun intended?) feeling good at the end of the day because:

  • we helped an organization & research toward ending a long-standing epidemic
  • our mere attendance is the best support we can provide for huge events like this
  • we got some good exercise (Golden Gate Park’s punishing hills are a killer for your legs)
  • it gave us a reason to visit San Francisco

The best part about visiting the City is sampling the diverse dining. On the way to our car, we unwounded with lunch on 9th avenue at Bistro 9.
