Madisyn is officially signed up for the Helen Devos Children's Hospital Grand Rapids Kids Marathon! She has been asking for some time if she could do a race (especially every time she sees other kids doing races) and she loves to run at the track with Rob and I when we do track workouts. So, when I saw this, I knew she'd be excited about it... and excited she was! The first two days she ran a total of three miles! And everyday since, she asks me in the morning when we can go running. The objective is to run a total of 25 miles before race day and complete the final 1.2 miles in the race on October 15th (for a total of 26.2 miles, official marathon distance).
The best part is, she and I have gotten to spend some quality one-on-one time together. While running her last quarter of a mile the other night she said, "This is fun... talking and chit-chatting!" It made me want to melt! Not to mention, that's exactly one of the reasons that I run... to talk and catch-up with friends!
We're so proud of you, baby girl!
