Race...Again

I know it seems like we race a lot.  We actually do one about once a month.  It always helps to keep me motivated to run more.  I was originally going to do another race and do a 10K, but I had scheduling conflicts and then they changed. When my scheduling conflict changed the race got too expensive to sign up for.  Oh well, I will do a 10 mile race in May.  Jenny and I ended up signing up for a 5K.  I had my best time on the 5k.  Jenny placed 2nd in her age division, and the age divisions were not gender specific.  I placed third in mine.  This time there was a mile fun run.  Joshua has been wanting to run a longer distance race, so we signed him up.  Dallin decided to sit this one out and cheer everyone on.  Joshua did so well, and kept a  very good pace. I am so proud!  He was a little tired at the end, but after a short break, he was up and running around again.  All afternoon Joshua and Dallin were running around having me cheer for them as they came into the finish line.  It was cute.  Dallin says he will run it next time.  Leah enjoyed hanging out and loved looking at all of the baby animals in the petting zoo.

This is Joshua coming in.  Michael ran with him.  We ran around a neighborhood and lots of people came out of their houses to cheer people on.

Joshua looks terrible in this picture, but that is the way it goes.  :)  Poor Michael always has to put up with me and my races.  He is a good sport about these races.  He is actually going to run one in April.  :)
