Ran a church 5k with my family. It wasn't as big of a turnout as last year when I got my PR. Iwas debating about pushing the stroller vs. trying to go fast. Some friends showed up and pushed me over the top so I decided to push it. I did pretty well for not having done in speedwork this year. I was only 1 minute off of my PR. I guess I should put some work into speed over the next months and see if I can get a PR in January. 

My family also did pretty well My wife and daughter took first in their divisions. My wife pushed the stroller for most of the race. My daughters division was 0-20 yr-old women and she is 9 so I think that is pretty good for her.

Did a 5k training run w/ Lucy. She was able to run the whole time which was a pretty good accomplishment for her. we finished in 29:53 which is a PR for her also. She didn't think she would be able to run faster than 10 min/mile.

Later Chase decided he wanted to see how far he could run without stopping. We did 2 miles.
