The kids decided that they wanted to sign up for the Seattle Kids Marathon in November. I know it seems like a long way away but time seems to fly and I know it will come around quicker than I expect. Here is the event info...doesn't it sound fun?

My brother, sister-in law and their 2 girls will be over from Australia visiting us and they are signing up too. Well maybe not my brother....he is going to be the waterboy. I think I'll sign up for the 5k or the Half Marathon. My s-i-l says she is thinking of doing the 5k so if she does I think I'll choose that over the Half. Anyway....something fun to look forward to...Thanksgiving in Seattle AND a race. Yay!

Here we have Marathon Kids, which has a kick-off mile in the fall. THen the kids keep track of their running throughout the next four months, and they have the final lap in conjunction with the festivities during the Austin Marathon weekend. It started out with a few hundred kids the first year, and now every school in and around Austin is involved.
ReplyDeleteLove that look of determination on your adorable sons's face! Excellent motivation with your brother's family participating in the November marathon. Sounds like a great way to work off that pumpkin pie.
