Day 26. First race

It was the first race of my training program and I did it even with my bum ankle.

It was the first race Brandt's ever been in and he LOVED it.

We got up at 5:00 in the morning and got ready together. It was freezing outside. I did the 5K and Brandt did the 1 mile fun run. They started the kids 15 minutes after the rest of us and he was nervous. He did the stretches he does for soccer and jumped up & down to get warm. He got first place in his division and he wore his race shirt and medal the rest of the day. You should have seen him eyeing all those medals on the table while we waited for them to announce the winners. I just barely missed winning the "middle of the pack" prize. Dang it! Maybe next time. :)

Later in the day we went to Jaxon & Jordan's birthday party WITHOUT A CAMERA and swam and played and met little Ethan (Amy & Brandon's 1st little babe) for the first time. He is just so so cute. I was so happy to see them and meet him! Clay worked on the swamp cooler and sadly made no progress with the blasted thing. Looks like we're coming up on a week at the pool, eh Brayden?
