Serious Runners
OK I just have to brag a little because my guys are some serious runners. Seriously!!! The boys just had their annual Jog-A-Thon at school. It is a large fundraiser for the school each year to help those of us who need financial assistance with the tuition.
Brayden and Brock were scheduled to run at the same time. The school uses the neighboring High School's track. This is a regular track people. 4 laps equals a mile.
Brylee and I joined in again this year. She did not want to be in the stroller, so it was either being carried or running along with us. The boys were scheduled to run for 1 hour. They could walk if need be. There were not any breaks, just a couple quick fly by's to grab water or a piece of bagel.
My mom, John and Brad all showed up for support as well. John came prepared to run with them. My mom and Brad took a quick break from work to come watch. My mom actually ended up running several laps with the boys in her work clothes! Dress and boots is not quite the attire for running, but she made it work and the boys were so happy she was there. She gets extra credit for that effort as well!!!
Here are some photos I snatched before the race started.
And a quick video of Brylee going for a run too!
So onto the results!
Brayden ran 4.25 miles (17 laps) and Brock ran 3.5 miles (14 laps). I think Brylee got in at least .5 mile too! Brock was so proud too because he beat Brayden's 13 lap record from last year. They did such a great job! We are so proud of them for pushing through the rain that came for a bit and not stopping one time. Awesome job Brayden and Brock! And a BIG thank you to those of you who sponsored them!
