Hawk Island 5K

We ran a 5K last week through the woods and around the lake. Once again Dave rocked me pushing a thousand pounds of baby the whole way. But I'm just glad to get out and run. And the kiddos did great. Much much better than last time.
One of my favorite friends and her ever energetic husband also raced. Pure inspiration those two.
Noah's favorite part was the clown making a sword balloon just for him. Gage's favorite was pulling on Noah's stroller straps, Dave's was the pump-you-up music you could hear even on the other side of the lake. And my favorite part of the 5K was the snacks afterward of course. Bananas always taste better after a run.

So, how'd I get labeled the 'energetic' one? Look at Emily; she looks like she eats 5k's for breakfast (which she does...)

Thanks for the post. And thanks for running, it was a lot of fun being with you four.

I want to come and run a 5k with you.. super bad! Do you remeber wanting to take all of our 5k t-shirts and make a blanket out of them? By the way go Dave on pushing the babes thats impressive.

That looks so fun. A 5k with the kids, that is very impressive!
