5K Race/Fun Run 4/30/11

We went to participate in a 5K walk/run. Well, Brad and Holly officially entered the race. Oscar, Ivy and I walked a little bit of it and cheered them on. We didn't pay for Oscar to officially enter the race. He felt a little gypped since he started the race with Brad and Holly and didn't understand why he couldn't win a medal. The race ran in front of a house that belongs to a member of the church in our ward. So, before I got back to church after the baby, it was rumored that I had run a 5K two weeks after having a baby. The year before I had run it and they saw Holly run past their house this year. It was a little bit funny.

Holly was excited to run!

She ran most of the 5K by herself because she took off in the begining and left Brad. He never caught back up with her. She was very happy to beat him:).

To Brad's credit, he started the race slowly so he could stay with Oscar.

Holly, getting her medal. She finished 1st in her age group with a finishing time of 42 minutes and 13 seconds (she was the only one in her age category but it made it fun for her).

Ivy was sleeping in the stroller nearby.

Brad and Holly after the race. You can see Oscar in the background feeling upset because he didn't win a trophy:).

There was an extra medal that the people in charge of the race kindly gave Oscar. He felt pretty good after that!

Holly and Brad with their medals. Brad also won 1st in his age group (There weren't a lot of people in the race. We don't really need to mention he was also the only one in that age bracket for males:) Oh and we made money by entering the race because there was a door prize and they drew Brad's name for a $50 gas card. Due to the small amount of people that entered the race we also got an additional $20 coupon that we also put towards gas. The whole thing was great!
