The kid's school sponsors a 5K/1mile every year as a fund raiser for the PTA. The kids decided that we needed to participate this year. I can't believe they talked me into it!

Getting ready
This is the only picture we got of Charity!
5k-On you mark. . .
1 milers-get ready
Charity, Emily, Jeremy and I did the 5K. Zac wanted to go with his friends so he did the 1 miler. Jeremy was still getting over a week-long fight with pneumonia and this was the first day he actually felt okay. He had been planning on doing this for weeks and was so excited--what's a mom to do. . . .let him go. I know, not the smartest choice but I just couldn't say no. Instead I had to give him a back ride after running 1/2 block and then walking the next few blocks. I would carry him for a while and then I would put him down to walk for a bit. About half way through he couldn't even walk any more and after some convincing he agreed to go home and rest. This last picture is of him as he is walking up to the house --very sad and very tired. (we had to wait until the route went by our house again)What a trooper~! Steve played photographer and watched the little boys.
