Funnest race EVER EVER EVER!!!!
After a family discussion we decided we would open up the New Year with a family run followed by ice skating and dinner. It was absolutely FANTASTIC!!!! We threw around a few different plans of action and then decided we would run our newly found race together.
The first mile was the BEST since all seven of us were running as a family. We were on the JRP and the weather cooperated beautifully. Our first mile came in at 11:50. The twins impressed us all with running the whole time! Oliver, Livvy, and Ryan had completed their fun run, and Rylee, Payton, Sophia, and I had another 2.1 to go.
As we began our 2nd mile we picked up the pace to about 10 minute miles, Sophia's comfortably tough zone. We laughed and enjoyed ourselves, but it was obvious that Rylee was itching to take off. With one mile left I told Rylee and Payton that they could run as fast as they wanted to the finish. Their faces lit up and off they went. We were at an area that looped a bit and so for a minute or so I was able to watch Rylee from the side. She looked amazing and I am sure she was running at about a 7 minute pace.
Before I knew it our run was over. I wish it would have lasted for hours more. I was in heaven. Running with my cute hubby and kids. What better way is there to start a new year?
