Run for your Life!

Reilly and Kadie ran their first 5k race in May. (I ran it too, but I am old hat at 5ks.) Our stake sponsored the run. It was held at Mahoney Park in Lincoln. The stake activities committee mapped out the route. We made 2 ½ laps on the park trail. 

For some crazy reason, we ended with a steep hill. I did my best to motivate the girls (i.e., Look at that lady running and pushing a stroller. You don’t want to say you got beat by a lady pushing a stroller, do you?, etc.). 

They both did a stellar job. Reilly has even taken up running with me on occasion since the race. Kadie has no aspirations to be a runner. (But, neither did I when I was her age.)
