Taste of Hope 5K

Our church has an annual 5K every summer and once again this year I went out to run, even though it seemed a lot hotter this year than in any previous year! Maddy and Colby both did the kids' run as well. Maddy has done a few kids' runs in the past; this was Colby's first one. He was pretty excited and ended up winning the 2 yr old division with only 3 kids competing! Of course, he also got a big head start as he was so excited to run that he took off before they said 'Go'! The 2 other kids came running behind, one holding her dad's hand and the other one crying the whole way -- it was pretty funny! Of course Colby needed no prompting or help to get started; He just needed to hear the words 'Run' and it was all over!!!

Really funny to watch -- I included a video from my camera of both Colby's and Maddy's races below.
