This week's 5K was in Blackshear. Since the race was local, Brian and I took the kids and let them participate in the 1-mile fund run. As usual, the kids were among the youngest in the race (so we finished last). I was especially proud of how well Owen did. He ran more than he walked, and seemed to be enjoying himself. He even beat Olivia this time (granted- Olivia had been sick earlier in the week and was still not back to 100%). At the finish line, the kids received medals and lots of cheers from the crowd. The event organizers had set up bouncy houses for the children to play on after the 1-mile race, so that is what the kids did while I ran the 5K. I ran a 25:04 and placed first in my age group. Quincy also ran and placed second in her division. And here's some more good news: this race marked the return of my "running buddy" Anna, who was cleared to make her grand re-appearance in running after recovering from injury. Welcome back, Anna!
