Before they came along, I used to race alot. It's been pretty few and far between since then. A group of my coworkers had a team and we decided to gove it a whirl. MaMaw came, and we met a few coworkers at dusk by the river for the start. The jogger and twins were wrapped in glow sticks. We got lots of grins from various people walking by (and a few passing comments I overheard about how I was crazy for doing it with them).
They did amazing. Not one peep. they were quite fascinated by the crowd, the costumes, the music, all the glow sticks. It made for a late night for them, but we had a great time!
Wands, wrapped every inch in glow sticks, hoodies and jackets since it was a little chilly by the water...all ready to roll.
Not the best picture...but somewhere in the mess are a couple of little people that finally gave it up and went to bed after the race.
Nothing says "good race" like topping it off the next morning with a special treat...chocolate donuts.
I feel the need to clarify that MaMaw does NOT race. MaMaw walked the 3 miles. But I made it all the way. No turning back. :)
