Spartan Scamper 5K

Last weekend we braved the overcast, cooler weather and participated in the Spartan Scamper 5K, which benefited the EBA Alumni Association.  It was their first 5K race and they had a great turnout, especially considering the weather! Gaines, Amy, Caroline, and I started off by walking the first two miles while Gaines' mom quickly passed us.  Gaines and I decided to run the last mile (which was easier said than done), but still couldn't catch up to Lightning Julie. ;)  She ended up beating all of us and won an award for her age group! 



This is quite possibly my favorite picture of all time. ;) 



I thought this one was so cute!  This is Gaines meeting one of my students after the race.





What a fun morning!  My next 5K is in October.  Kristina and I signed up for the Color Run, which is coming to Augusta, and promised each other that we'd run the entire thing.  I've been training with my "Couch to 5K" app and with two weeks down (and six to go), I'm feeling pretty good so far.  Let's hope this motivation lasts!  



Happy Wednesday!
