| My three oldest kids - Max (13), Sophia (11), and Evan (8) - and I ran the Firecracker Fast 5K in Little Rock this morning.
After about a month of "training" (consistent, short trail runs at different paces and striders), they did great, and I was very proud of their effort.
I ran with Evan, who finished second in the 9 and under age group with a time of 27:44.

| 4.5 mile hike, with some light running on downhills, along the Ouachita Trail from Hwy. 7 Trailhead west to Moonshine Shelter and back. Max, Sophia, Evan seemed to enjoy themselves despite the heat and humidity. I love seeing them break into a run on downhillls without being asked, each of them realizing it's actually easier and much more efficient than walking at times.
