That is what I ran my first 5k in oh, 5 years. Now, I really didn't run the whole thing but I did jog a lot. Ali made sure of that. You see I had Ali, J had Ace. Ali loves to be by her dad and her big brother. If you were able to read her mind.....
Ali- Come on Mom... it is about to start, or wait, let me hit my brother, shoot there went the gun.
Me: Be good Ali, follow Dad
Ali - Yeah, how am I supposed to follow Dad when HELLO! You wont pick up your feet. Do you know how tiring it is to keep trying to pull your butt around?!?!
Me: Al i Slow down, Mom cant run that fast.
Ali - Got to make more muscles. Must. Pull. Harder.
And later in the race....
Ali - WOW - those cheerleaders are cheering for me, aren't I a lucky dog!!! If only my mother would get her butt in gear!
We finished slightly behind J and Ace. Tired. But happy.
Weigh in next week.... Stay tuned!

I didn't know you were going to run a 5K. I'm so proud of you.
I'm sure you and Ali did great together.
Well done!!! Finishing is the main thing, but I am sure it helped to have such an enthusiastic assistant.
