Running a 5K

Saturday, October 11, Hannah ran in her first 5K . She was so excited and to my surprise not nervous.



This is her finishing. She was so happy and she told me she didn't even stop to walk.



This is her aunt SheShe (my sister Shelly). She entered so she could run with Hannah. They let the cross country kids start in the front so Shelly never really saw her until it was over. Shelly has run for years but this was her first 5K and she placed 2nd in her age group. She left before the awards ceremony so I would like to accept this award on her behalf. First off I would like to thank the academy........ Sorry got side tracked.

And how did Miss Hannah do you ask?





First place baby!!! Her age group was 8 and under. There was only one other girl in her age group :) She has caught the 5K fever. She was asking when she could do it again. The next hometown run won't be until June and she told me, didn't ask, but told me I was running with her. She also informed me that she is my coach and that today I will start training. Oy vey!
