I know it's not St. Patrick's day yet but Eli and I already celebrated (sort of). Eli participated in his 1st race. He asked me if he could run a race so I googled and came up with Green Clover 5K & 1K Fun Run, Benefiting,The St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a charity funding the most promising research to cure cancer in children. It was held at Goose's Acre on The waterway in the woodlands.
I am so proud of Eli, he ran the whole 1k! He was the youngest participate by about 1.5 years. He
had so much fun running it he didn't even notice he came in dead last. All the kids that finished the 1k got a finisher dog tag and Eli was over the moon about his! After he finished his race he told me he wants to do another one. Eli makes me so proud, maybe I have finally found my running buddy!
Eli Enjoying his post race grub and smoothie. He ran his race in his froggy rain coat even though the rain stopped just enough for the kids to run but came back for the 5k.
Eli’s finisher bling!
We didn’t get any pictures of the race because our photographer (aka Thomas) was driving around trying to get baby doll (Hannah Joy)to sleep.
On another note I also ran with Eli and then ran the 5k where I smashed my 5k PR. Very proud of that fact, I was very tired and wet after run.
