Strawberry 5K

Post date: Jun 07, 2010 4:58:51 PM

We as a family did our first 5K this past Saturday.  It went really well.  Rachel ran on her own and finished 1st in her catagory and 3 overall female.  Jim started with Nikki and Sydney running together, but Sydney decide that was to slow and took off on her own after the first mile.  She did really well, finishing in 30 minutes, 11 seconds.  She wants to do another 5k without being held back at the beginning.  She says she can do better.  Nikki had to take breaks from running to walk some.  But when the end was in sight she took off running as fast as she could and finished the run in 41 minutes.  She also won a prize for the youngest runner to complete the 5k.  She is 6.  Also Sydney and Jim won door prizes so everyone walked away a winner.  We are looking forward to doing this again next year.
