I really haven't ran consistently since my half marathon back in April (injury, family emergencies, life). I want to get back into it so I thought the Eastman 3K would be a good start. I absolutely do not like the 10K race (course is terrible, the shirts are terrible). I dislike everything about it (except the race directors and the expo) so I knew I didn't want to do it but Carson said he would do the 3K. We haven't let him run a race by himself yet (due to safety) but I should have let him today since he had plenty of crowd support. I honestly think I held him back. He stayed with me the first half then just as soon as we made the turn to come back, he took off and I never saw him again until I finished. I am proud of him though. I don't know if he will be a runner like his dad, but we sure are happy this is something we all can do together (well, Carson WAY in front of me!)
Waving to Dad at the start! |
See the kid in the white hat and turquoise shirt? Yep, he beat me! He also beat this kid in the yellow shirt that looked older than him!! ;o) |
