Frigid 5K

It was a cold one!  I am loving that it is actually feeling like "winter" here.  The boys, especially Dallin really wanted to run a race.  I convinced Michael to get out of bed early and hang out in the cold.  He is a trooper. :)


My friend Elise coming in before the rest of us!

My sister Jenny running at 15 weeks pregnant.  She did well!

This will be my last race before baby arrives.  It felt pretty good. 

Tony running in to the finish line.

Michael was freezing the whole time.  The kids did okay because they love to run around.  They are also used to playing outside more than Michael.

Boys all ready for their 1K.

After the 1K.  In full disclosure Leah did not run the full race she did about 2/3 ish.  Michael carried her a little as well, but she had fun and it was her first race.

Sorry it is sideways.  I still have lot to learn on blogger.  :)  This is Dallin running in.  He did really well.  He has been practicing on our walks home from school.

That is so awesome that your whole family did it! I hope to get there some day. There aren't a whole lot of 5k's around here that have the 1 mile fun run with it. To be totally honest, I hate running. I always have and probably always will. But I want to encourage my kids to be active and I think this is a great way to do it. Good job running while pregnant. It's not the easiest!

Thanks Kristina and Kellie! I was lucky to find the Dallas Running Club, cheap races, and family friendly!
