Carleigh's trial run at her 5K

Carleigh is doing a running program after school called Girls on the Run. She has been training since September to run a 5K on December 12th. Today they went to the local park and ran a practice 5K. Carleigh finished her 3.1 miles in 36 minutes. Her coaches were quite impressed as was I. Neil, of course, had to calculate how many minutes per mile, compare that to his minutes per mile in his 10K. Men never outgrow their competitive nature. (I never have either, LOL) She can have buddy's run with her. and Neil and our friend, Teresa volunteered. I would, but have the knee injury (YEA RIGHT!) I don't run unless there is a BIG black hairy dog chasing me and then I would really wet my pants. Carleigh asked my friend, Deb, at work. She just turned 60 and said "Carleigh, honey - I don't run but I'll drive my car along beside you and cheer you on!" I think I'll hitch a ride with her....... I will keep you posted on her progress.......
