St. Patty's Day Race

 Last Saturday the kids participated in a St. Patty's Day race.  It turned out to be a lot of fun!

Cameron has been asking about this race for a few months now and I was hoping that he might forget about it considering last year I almost froze to death.  After checking the weather and verifying that we wouldn't have a repeat of last year's snow we signed the kids up. 

Julia and Natalie ran in the 1k.  Julia came in 2nd and really has some speed with those long legs.  It will be fun to she how she does as she gets older.   Natalie, the little powerhouse, was about the 12th girl to cross the finish line.  She always wants to know what place she gets.  I am not sure where she gets her competitiveness from. :)

Cameron ran in the 5k and got 1st in his age division with a time of 21:59.  That is a pace of 7:05 a mile.
He got a trophy and a gift certificate to the Family Fun Center.

Lucy was just glad when it was over and we got to celebrate by going to Krispy Kreme for breakfast.  That is a breakfast for champions, right?!
