Ran the Handcart Days 5k with Emma and Gracie. They ran a much more controlled pace and did a lot better than they have in the past. Emma had a 0.1 mile lead on us most of the time but we caught up during the last mile while she was taking a walk break. Both finished in 32:40. Gracie actually crossed the finish line before Emma but Emma's chip time was faster. She ended up 3rd in her age group and Gracie was 4th. I couldn't quite explain to my ultra-competetive, hate losing, spunky girl why she didn't get an award even though she beat Emma. I guess the universe is trying to teach her a lesson on losing graciously. |
