On Saturday, Mary, Maggie and David ran in the Renegade Santa Run. In the past, we have run a Turkey Day Race, but the Thanksgiving race was too far away and didn't fit with our schedule, so we opted for the Santa Run, which was held in Irvine.
David ran the 5K, but the girls ran the 1/2 mile kids run. David told me on the way there that he thought he would be slow, since he hasn't been working on speed lately. Well, he finished seventh in his age group with a time of 21:50! With zero training, Mary finished fifth out of the girls in her race! Last year, Maggie couldn't even run a full half-mile. This year, she ran the entire race! I am so proud of each of them! Hopefully, I'll be able to join in on the 5K next year! (The funny part was that I was the one who needed a nap when we got home!)
