Max's Race

This morning was Max's Race. We had to get up early - and leave the house at 7:40!

I had one sleepy boy, but he was excited about running and he wanted a medal!!!

The rock on campus was painted for the event. We saw Sparty!!!!!!!

I pushed Andrew in a borrowed stroller for the 5K. Not a bad time for me....considering.


Then came the Kids' 1 Mile Run.


Andrew got in position - a true racers' start.

He ran the first half mile and then walked and ran the rest. I was following him - he was ahead of me for some time!!!!!!!!!

He got his medal!!!!!!!!!!! and cold water and a special cookie.

He said he was never taking it off!!!!!





Hopefully we will both take a rest this afternoon............
