Savannah's First 5k

Last weekend we took Savannah to her first 5k run. It was a Halloween theme and we all dressed up for the occasion! Since we are doing an 80's/Star Wars themed race next week I decided that I wanted a costume that we could wear to both races. So we went as a family of Ewoks from the movie Star Wars.

Before our 5k race there was a 10k race leaving 10 minutes before ours. We stood to the side and watched the runners leaving the start line. Savannah became very upset thinking that everyone was leaving without us. She was in tears and was obviously still very tired from her early wake up time.

 

 Savannah did not even make it ten minutes to our race start. She was out like a light and slept the entire time we were running. She woke up right after the finish when we put her medal on top of her. She instantly woke up and was very proud of her first medal. After all she worked SO hard to get it! Ha! We enjoyed our bananas and then headed home to take a nap. (We are NOT morning people...)
