On Saturday, all 4 kids participated in a 1/2 Mile Fun Run that was a fundraiser for Ney Park. They were all 4 pretty excited about it beforehand. As we approached time to begin, Maddie had gone from..."I can do it all by myself" to "I don't want to do it". But the boys were all lined up and ready.
Unfortunately, I didn't get any more pictures of them running, because Maddie and I were walking half of the course. Ronnie paced himself and didn't start out ahead, but ended up finishing 5th (there were over 20 kids from 12 year olds down to 3 year olds. He did great! Nathaniel is more of a sprinter. He started out like that too and totally got exhausted...fast! He finished 8th, which I thought was still pretty good. But his response was, "I never want to do that again". Eli completed the whole 1/2 mile and ran the majority of it. I have no idea on what place, but he did great and seemed to enjoy himself.
Maddie...well, we walked 1/4 mile, and she seemed pleased!
As I said, I didn't get pictures while we were there, but I got this one when we returned! They all seemed pleased, some with how they did and some that it was over :)
