Zeke's first 5k!

A really late post about May's 5k:

A week before the 5k, we put in a run of 3.5 miles, and we were ready to run the Shoreham Apple Blossom Derby (considered a 5k, but actually closer to 3.5 miles).  During the week, we planned to get another run in, but Ryley got sick and we had to change our plans.  Plans changed even more when I got sick and woke up on race day with a fever and headache.  I couldn't walk without pain, let alone run, so bummed as I was, I sent JD and the kids to the run and I went back to bed.  Zeke still wanted to run, and it turned out to be great for him that I wasn't there.  He ran alone for most of the race and beat my time from last year by 6 minutes!  He came in 10th overall (there were about 50 people running the 5k) and had a time of 28 minutes.  I was so proud of him!  He loved it and is eager to run more.

Comparing numbers with schoolmates.

Finishing strong!
