Run in the Dark

We participated in Run in the Dark this past weekend, which is a 5K/1-mile Fun Run that supports our local Community Storehouse.  We decided this year to forego the stroller and run the Fun Run as a family.

 Landon was so excited to get to run that he practiced running through the house before we left for the event. He also told us that he had all of his energy saved up in his stomach!  Ha!
 Go Landon go!
 He did so great!  We were prepared to carry him for part of the run, but Landon ended up running the entire thing...well almost the entire thing.  He did take one small walking break and told us that he was tired, but he quickly found some more energy.
 Post race.
 He did such a great job.
 He's hanging on to his glow in the dark bracelet that he received when he crossed the finish line.
 So proud of my little runner!
He's such a sweet little thing--he wanted to take a picture of David and me after the race.  I think he did a pretty good job!

I hope that he ends up enjoying running in the years to come.  It would be so much fun to participate in running events together.  :)
