Families That Run Together...

..have fun together!
This afternoon we all participated in the 1st Annual Love Like Reed 5K run, and we had a blast!
This was the first race that Tony and I have run together since before we were dating.  That may have been 14 years ago, but I think we both improved our times!
The kids loved watching us race to the finish line at the end (and playing on the bleachers and field with RaRa while we were chugging along elsewhere).







Our good friends Christine and Jason ran the race with us too.  Christine and I ran with each other the whole time and wouldn't let the other person slow down.  Though neither of us said a word, the mere fact that the other person was still there and still incessantly putting one foot in front of the other was enough to keep each of us going.  We may be a bit competitive.
The kids got in on the action too, with Caleb, Wren and Ava running in the 1 Mile Fun Run.  I was so proud of their perseverance - they all finished strong, sprinting across the finish line.  They were a little proud of themselves too.

What better way to spend a beautiful Sunday afternoon than having fun and moving with our friends in the sunshine!
