Jack had his first athletic event on Saturday! The Rapides Junior Runners is a great organization that puts on a race once a month for five months. Jack is in the five and under category, and they run a half mile. We had to get there an hour early to register, and Jack played really hard on the playground. He was hot and tired before he even began the race! He ran for a couple of minutes, but he definitely brought up the rear of the race...ha!! I carried him across the finish line. We told him how proud we were of him, but he was very disappointed in himself. Even after he got his medal he wouldn't smile. He said that he wanted to practice before the next race.
He was so proud when we put his number on him! Look how red and sweaty he is before the race.
My Aunt Budda and Uncle Bill came to watch Jack run. He loves them! Aunt Budda and I are running a half-marathon in February.
Sydney does NOT understand why anyone would EVER run in the heat. She's mad just sitting in her stroller.
Jack is checking out his medal. He was so not proud of himself. Ha! (By the way, the shirt they gave him to run in is HUGE!! I'll have to doctor it up before the next race, which is October 16th)
