If you’re new here and are asking, “What the heck is Operation Orange?” you can read about it here.
Well, I survived the 10K. I wouldn’t call it triumphant, I missed my goal time by almost 3 minutes, and I felt like I was lugging seven people on my back for half the race, but I had some badass hair and multiple, garish shades of orange to go with it. And why I did it was by far the most important thing. So it’s all good.
You asked for them, so on with the pictures!

My favorite picture

Closer up. It’s like mood hair; it looked different depending on where I was.

At its most egregious orange

Struggling to the finish, but finishing nonetheless!

Again, thank you so much to everyone who donated! You are awesome!

Looking very svelte next to that tree!
Some running gait you have!
Congratulations!
Love the hair!:)
You look great! Nice job on all counts.
Congratulations Tim! I knew you could do it! And Thanks to the Camp GRACE team who helped make so many more dreams possible!
I love the hair! Also, I agree. You are looking very svelte! keep on running down that road for the all the awesome kids. Great job!
Getting called ‘svelte’ twice in a single post is something I don’t think has happened before.
Once would have been a record I think! Y’all are too kind. Losing 20 pounds has been good for me, health-wise much more important than anything remotely svelte-wise. I’m working to lose 15-20 more and run a half-marathon in the spring.
Thanks for everyone’s support and well-wishes!
