Two out of three girls ran in a race recently. Can you guess which girl was the holdout??? Oh yeah, I bet you can! Lovey & Honey enjoy running this kids' race and were all psyched up. At one point Sweetie was going to do it but as the date got closer she thought better of it and cheered from the sidelines instead. Mr Bojangles was all for it though and trotted right along behind his cousins.
Honey placed third and was so amazed with her achievement that she was overheard saying "I can't BELIEVE I came in THIRD!" at least 100 times, each time with the same breathless wonder. She's pretty speedy when she wants to be. I think she should do some training runs with Murray to get ready for next year. This will be the last year she can do the mini race. Next year she'll be too old and will only have the 1k as an option. She can probably run almost that now but I wouldn't want to throw her in there unprepared so we'll see.
Lovey came in 5th and was content with that but didn't feel the need to remind us about it all day long ;) Mr. Bojangles came in shortly after she did and really liked his medal!
Murray finished in the top 10 and was pretty much on track for the time he expected. I believe he placed in his age group too but didn't feel like sticking around the 3 hours for the meal and awards.
