Family Fun Run

This year Camden's school had a family fun run. You could choose the 1 mile or the 5K. Being the avid runner that I am, I chose to do the 1 mile with Camden and Darin was going to atempt the 5k while pushing Carter and Myah in the jogging stroller. (He is about as avid of a runner as I am.) Well I checked us all in (I lucked out of a t-shirt) and we all went to the starting line. Once we were there, Darin realized I hadn't got ankle timers. He went back to get them and the race started without him. So I ran with the jogger and Camden. Darin finally caught up to us, but missed the turn off for the 5K so we ended up finishing the mile run together. It was actually a lot of fun. The memories of the dreaded timed mile in middle school did not come back to haunt me. I actually understood why so many of you run to relieve stress. It felt great to be out in the crisp, cool air of the morning. Maybe I should take up the sport!

It was a good thing the race was early, because this is what the weather turned into just a couple of hours later. Camden was suppose to have a soccer game....just one of the many that were cancelled this season due to poor spring weather!
