Chick-Fil-A 5K

The weekend after Easter we ran in another 5K. This one was in Seneca and benefited VIMM - Volunteers in Medical Missions. Stacy ran too and this time John joined us. It was a beautiful day and we had a great time. The course was pretty challenging...we started at the lake and as John put it everything is uphill from the lake.
The boys meet one of the Chick-Fil-A cows. No tears but no high-fives either.
After the race...still working on looking better after I cross the finish line. Josh & I had pretty good times. We both cut a minute plus off our fastest and had our fastest 1 mile split to date. I think Josh was pleased even though John beat him by 15 seconds or so...getting beat by your younger brother should be incentive to keep training.

Pappa & Mimi came up to cheer us on and watch the boys.

At the post-race cool down...we forgot to BYO chicken though!

Thanks for posting all the fun pictures! You look great after the race! Once I am running again, I will have to post a picture of me. I have the redest face EVER! I remember those great spring days in the upstate. Glad you are enjoying them!
