Racing!

Owen and Paige's school held a fitness day last weekend that included a 5k, a 1 mile race and a kid's run. Owen signed up for the 1 mile and was very nervous the morning of, even saying he didn't want to go. We talked him through it and reminded him it was totally fine to be nervous/excited and not to worry about winning (because, ahem, I reminded him that I never win but that's not why I run...). Anyway, turns out that Owen did win the race! We were all crazy impressed/surprised/proud of him for doing such a good job. Paige did the kid's fun run and managed to impress as well! She ran the entire time with a smile on her face, it was so fun to watch!

Getting ready at the starting line!

Fun times waiting for Owen to finish his race.
