Family Intel 5k


We decided last minute to jump in on the Intel 5K run/walk this last Wednesday.  We both wanted a physical challenge and I knew I needed some motivation to get me slowly back in shape.  With the help of a friend I found myself enjoying speed walking to beat the 50 minute time set we put on ourselves.  It wasn't the 26 minute run, like Reed did, but we did manage to run the last 1/4 mile and got done by 48 minutes...YEAH!!!
   It was fun.  A family tradition we hope to keep every year from now on.  Hopefully next year we will be ready to enjoy running it as an entire family. Maybe when Norah is 5 we can be ready for a family marathon, by 10 years old the Iron Man. :)

We love running 5k's as a family! If we lived closer it would be fun to do them together! Your kids (wow, that's plural now!) are so cute and getting so big!
