Saturday: race

Today was the kids' fun run.  It was advertised as a 1k, which I think it has been in the past.  This time Isaac had a 0.5mi run (which I just converted and it is 0.8km, so not that far off) and Joshua had a 0.2mi run.

It worked out quite well though.  I got tired around the 0.3 mi mark and started walking fast.  Isaac kept going...but he isn't a very fast runner.  He kept moving the whole time, although he did slow down to take a drink.  We were near the end of the pack, but oh well.  It has been rather cold and we didn't prepare for it as well as we could have.


Joshua and Ben and Grey Bear ran the whole race and finished rather near the front.  At that point Joshua was more worried about getting a snack than the fact that he had just run a race.




We then proceeded to walk a mile back to our car.

Upon getting home, but boys played out in the raspberry dirt some more.  They started by hammering it, but then used shovels and a rake.  The last time I looked at them Joshua was working again on making a stick forest near the raspberries.
