Porter ran the 1/2 mile and was pretty awesome for running his first race! He loved it and can't wait to do it again next year! Although I'm not sure if it was the race he loved or if it was getting the Gatorade at the end!
Briggs started out at a mad sprint and stayed in the lead until the turn-around point. Unfortunately, he lost some steam at that point and lost his lead. Apparently playing baseball doesn't do much for your endurance! He's determined to do some serious training next spring though. He's just a little competitive! Must have got it from Grandma Joyce.
Sophie was a good sport. She really didn't want to be there at all, but she assumed that I would make her run even if she argued (which is not true, although I would have strongly encouraged) and so just went along with it. Her age group ran the mile, but she was pretty sure by the end that she had run four! She really didn't enjoy it at all unfortunately and was almost in tears at the end, but I was really proud of her for doing it!

Poor Sophie. You probably would have given her the guilt trip had she not done it! That is something I would have done! Looks fun!
