Last weekend Ashlee and I completed the Folsom Firecracker 5k run. This was our first mother-daughter run, and Ashlee did amazing! She would start to fall back, then moments later I would hear a, "Hi Mom," and she'd be right at my side again. We ended up crossing the finish line within 30 seconds of each other! I am so proud of her.
I shaved 3 minutes off my last 5k time and ran all but about 10 seconds of it. We lucked out with it being such a cool day in July! The trail was very nice- shady and not too hilly.
"Good job Ash!"
They were giving out FREE Jamba Juice afterwards... mmm!
Me and my crew. I am so thankful that I am able to keep up my passion with all these kids in tow, and now be sharing it with my daughter.
Awesome job to both the ladies!! I'm glad the weather wasn't too hot on "run" day, as that probably would have made it really challenging. And Jambas-yum!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, I can't get over Ashley! And you, too, but Ashley, wow.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I LOVED the butter pecan ice cream. Thank you for sharing! I'll have to get the recipe because I have some heavy cream that needs using.
So awesome! We'll have to schedule a run sometime Lisa when I get my foot figured out!
