Paige and I ran the Howl-oween 5k fundraiser for the local high school today.  It was below freezing when we started.  She was batgirl and I was a fairy princess.  I was so proud of how she did!  The goals we discussed were to 1. run halfway before stopping to walk, 2. not walk more than half a mile, 3. finish running, and 4. try to do it between 40 and 45 minutes.

We accomplished all of the above and did it just under 35 minutes!  She worked so hard and never gave up.  She even sprinted the last 20 yards or so.  A very good day.

 When I got home Buster was up in arms about our morning walk, so I took him out.  It turned into a morning run once I saw how much energy he had.  I went a little further than usual to placate him.  Overall I feel pretty good.
