BEF 5k

The family ran our annual 5k here in town again.
When we started this run, I had ideas of a fun family event where we interact with people in our town and run together. What's actually happening is that everyone runs at a different pace, and we all split up! Andrew zoomed on ahead with his track friends. Matt stuck with mom and kept her company for most of the run while Emery went for a medal. I was her trainer, coach and pace runner.
We're not exactly sure what place she got as the times got messed up somehow with some of the other runners. But she got a 26:30 and probably 3rd place in the 10-11 year-old girls' division. Super good time in my book. We trained for a few months with long runs, speed runs, and hill runs. She really wanted a medal. Let's just say she's pretty competitive. Great job Emz, you did it!
