First, this race was the culmination of my efforts as a Best Buy ambassador. The program has been a lot of fun and I'm very proud to say that I've helped get many people off the couch and through a 5K. I am very interested to see where Best Buy takes the program now.
Second, the whole family ended up running the race, so that is always a good time. The boys are growing up so fast and I'm very happy that running and racing has become a part of their lives at an early age. Sean and I ran together for the first mile and then he told me that he wanted to run on his own, and run he did, on his was to a second place finish in the 0-9 age group! Ryan ran with Kathy and her cousin Natalie, keeping his head up and pushing through to the third place spot for the 0-9 boys! Wow!
Last, and far from least, my friend Brian and his 11-year old daughter ran together after having completed the Couch to 5K Training program together. She ran a 9:51 pace and placed third in her age group, which add 10 girls!
The weather was beautiful and the party after the race was a blast! Everyone had such a good time!
