Melinda ran her first 5k! She did it in 33min. She had run with me a few times this summer, and she is on the cross country team in school. The last time we ran together, we ran a little over a mile. At the end of the run (the last .25mi) She challenged me to a race to the finish.. And she legitimately won. I was impressed with her speed. As soon as her endurance increases, she will be a contender!
Way to go Melinda!

Ran the “gasping gobbler” 5k fun run today. I would post a web page if they had one…:p. Anyway, there were about 125 people in the race, and I came in 50th at 29:37:00 I made my goal of under 30 by a hair. Not bad after not being able to run this summer.. I just picked it up again a month ago. Hannah did not want to get up at 7:30 on a Saturday.. her sleeping in mornings on weekends are precious to her.. as in “ahhg.. my precioussss”..
Here is another picture of all of us that ran that day.

I have been inspired by my kids interest in racing lately (They have a kids triathlon that they are going to be participating in next week)
So, I just finished the Augusta “Heart and Sole” 5K race. I have never done one before. My time across the line was under 28 minutes!
OK, 27:59:47 or something like that.
Still, for just getting back into running, that’s pretty good if you ask me.
