we did the mount vernon chocolate stroll the first saturday in june.
my 2nd ever 5k with the boys and it was HILLY
of course I figured it would be since it is Mt. Vernon!
but chasen helped me out and got out and ran up a couple of the hills!
afterwards we went to the chocolate stroll
had some yummy chocolate and listened to the Eastern Iowa Brass band
The following satruday we did a 5k in williamsburg and they had a 1mile fun run and Garin wanted to do it!
so I ran with Chasen and Garin, which was comical, but actually went better then I thought:)
Chasen took off while Garin ran about 200 meters and then stopped so Im standing there yelling chasen stop, slow down! Garin come on keep going!!
after that we ran together most of the time.
until someone got tired and we would have to encourage them to keep going!
or when someone had to stop and look at at lawn mower!!
Here they are coming around the corner to the finish
chasen and garin came in 9th and 10th I think the time as 12min 48secons
chasen being the youngest runner by 2 years.
we hope to do it again soon!
It's so fun to share this hobby with the boys!
garin was telling me he wanted to win medals like uncle Ean :)
