Running Isn't Easy

Sharing a little about our journey along the miles.

Race Report 4/9/2011

Race:  Bird on the Run

Distance:  1 Mile Fun Run/Walk

Time:  about 20 minutes, give or take

Finish:  As a family, we came in dead last (out of about 30 people). Hehehe! Due in part to the following: Angel Girl threw herself down on the trail and cried that she couldn't walk any further, we stopped to look at a snake in a tree for several minutes (took photos), and the one group that was behind us cut through the field halfway around the trail. 

Comments:  I knew we'd be walking this one because we were taking the girls and strollers were not allowed (trail run/walk).  Little Miss Spitfire rode in the Kelty backpack for the first time and had a great time looking over my shoulder.  Angel Girl walked, picked up rocks, and drew in the dirt with a stick occasionally despite Hubby's best efforts to get her to run.  A fun family "race" indeed!

Lesson(s) Learned:  Hmmm....Angel Girl does not want to run/walk more than 1/2 mile right now?
