Jog-A-Thon 2014

The St. Paul school jog-a-thon, held every year in early June, has been the cause of much stress (Cade in his early years), competitiveness (all of our kids have had the most laps in their class at least once and Cade had the most in the school several years) and drama (Cade's disqualification one year!). This year was the last with all four of our kids participating, with Cade moving on to high school last year, and it was mostly all just about FUN (yay!)! Our three oldest kids walked and jogged it, not wanting to be sore for their tournament the next day (plus I think they are just too cool for it anyhow!) Genevieve did the 15 minute version of the event where the preschoolers and Pre-K's ran with all the other classes cheering them on. Nev has a blast! She ran the whole time, lapping most of the other kids and getting the most laps overall. I ran with her and she loved all the cheering and loved running. At one point, after running for over ten minutes, she said, "This is SO much fun! I love running!" Nev ran six laps in just under 15 minutes!
