"Fun Run Day"

I had an extra responsibility this morning other wise I would have stayed in bed.  After all it was my idea to sign the kids up for the 2K Halloween fun run in London.

After it was all over I knew why I had gotten up.  The feeling was a little different than the way I feel when I complete my own events, but no less gratifying.  To hear them both chattering away while at the same time trying to stuff their after race donuts in their mouths was a special feeling. 

I think and hope that things like this will influence them on the way to a long term, healthy lifestyle. 

I managed to keep up with Kylie, but Colby smoked the both of us.  He finished in 11:07 while Ky did her 2k in 12:53.

I was the only one who dressed up.

Photographer extraordinaire came long to cheer and to capture a few moments.



Colb told me that I should have gone as the roadrunner!  Says I would have been faster!

  1. Pete, your smile lights up the universe when you are with your precious grandchildren. I also love the kid at heart that exudes from you as well. Love it. As always, I look forward to reading your blog.
