Duathalon

This morning the kids took part in a duathalon. Emmett's age category went first; they only had to run. Emmett decided NOT to run--he just kind of walked with Aaron pulling him along. Oh well, at least we could hold out hope for Ethan's age category. Emmett's friend Mia took first for that age, though! Way to go Mia!



Next was Ethan's age category. The girls went first and his friend Olivia, also from Too Blessed to be Stressed, placed 2nd! Way to go Liv! When it was Ethan's turn we had a repeat of Emmett's event. Ethan, too, decided NOT to run. He gets easily embarrassed by attention on himself. SO, to make matters worse, because he was the last competitor, the crowd cheered all the louder for him while he biked. Aaron said he would pedal and then stop altogether.

Next age category was our nephew Carson's. He did great! He finished 4th for the boys in his age category. Way to go Carson!



The final race of interest to us was the next age category for girls. Our friends from Too Blessed to be Stressed had yet ANOTHER victory. Their oldest, Elli, took 2nd for her age category! Way to go Elli!

The kids had a good time playing games, doing a cake walk, getting ID badges made, and making and eating a healthy snack of trail mix and fruit kebobs!
