Rampage and Glow in the Dark Fun Run...

Merril was excited to be able to go help with the Red Bull Rampage again.  It's getting paid to do cool things and who doesn't love that?

Maxine is taking online PE because she hates PE at the school.  One of the requirements is to participate in a race.  We signed up for the Hurricane glow in the dark 1 mile fun run.  You could also do a 5K but I like the fun runs.  Mark and Daddy stayed back.  Max, Jack and Julie took off ahead of me and Mikayla.  Mikayla is an awesome little runner!  She gave me a run for my money, I could barely keep up.  Jack won 2nd in his age division!  He is so quick!

I love to run but not far and generally only for about 20 minutes at a time.  It works out to around 1.75 miles.  My times are poor.  I'm not fast and don't seem to be getting faster, even though I've been running consistently for about 3 years.  Some say it's because I don't push myself.  Meh.  That's not what it's about for me.  I often run alone, so it's just me and my thoughts, getting my blood pumping and being outside.  So it's not about getting a better time, it's about doing something I kinda love.  But only in short, slow stints. 😉
