Practice Run

The kids had their practice races tonight for Kilometer Kids.  They did a great job, and both worked so hard.  Songbird hadn't run more than 1.5 miles without stopping before, so I was interested to see how things would go for her. She also gets a side-stitch almost every time she runs (why???).  But tonight she was on fire and ran the whole thing without stopping in 29:30!!!  I think that's a great time.

Bro was pretty much smoking, and he ran an 8:12 mile!  I ran the first mile with Aida, then hopped over to run the mile with Benjamin (and almost couldn't keep up), and then hopped back over to join Aida.

I'm so proud of their hard work and (mostly) good attitudes.  They do a great job at KK encouraging everyone to do their best and have fun!  Such a great neighborhood activity we stumbled into:). The race is just over a week away...
