April Fools 4 Miler

They had a race on Saturday called the April Fools 4 Miler. I had planned to run it, and they had a kids race beforehand, so we decided we would all go. It was a bit chilly and windy, but the girls lined up and were ready to go. They had told us the race was a 1K (about a half of a mile) but it ended up being a full mile. Oops. They did great. Payton got first place and Eleanor got 4th place. Then my run was next. It got a bit crazy at that time, because I was getting ready for my race, the girls were all excited for theirs, and Amelia had poop running down her leg. Nothing we haven't seen before. So, just as my race starts, Eric races to the car to get her changed. We managed to make it through the morning. Chaos for a bit, but worth it on the end.

Here comes Carley!!!!

Eleanor!  She looked so tired, but she did it!!!

Mom at the end of mine.  I was a bit slower than I had hoped for (40 minutes right on for the 4 miles), but I will give myself a break since I just had a baby 10 weeks ago. 

Payton!  Even with the shoe untied and her jacket in her arms, she pushed it hard. 

And here comes Maggie!  The other girls ran to her and helped her cross the finish line.
