Run club and 5K

The girls' school had a virtual family run club that culminated in a 5k this December. We got a group of kids from the bus stop to all participate together, so we went running every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday morning for 8 weeks leading up to the 5k. Ben and Rosie rode their bikes or scooters. One day we were coming around the corner and saw Ben peddling in his "exercise spot." Hah!

Last weekend, we all participated in the Sentara Sleighbell 5K together. I was actually very impressed with the girls! Eleanor ran the whole time coming in at 34 minutes (with Chris) and Jane and I ran together (and walked some good portions of the third mile) coming in at 44 minutes. 

We are really proud of the girls and also impressed about how they (mostly) maintained positive attitudes and conquered a new challenge!
