The Girls on the Run 5K

This morning Emmy and I ran the Girls on the Run 5K and it was chilly!!!  She did so great and ran a PR!  She ran it in 32:46 - 3 minutes faster than she ran it in the fall!!!  After the race, we went to Starbucks for hot chocolate and cake and enjoyed a little Mommy daughter time!!

Girls on the Run 5K

Emmy and I ran the Girls on the Run 5K that she has been training for during the week for the past two months. She did so great!  I had agreed to also run with two other girls who are friends of Emmy's.  They ended up being a lot slower than Emmy and I didn't feel comfortable leaving them behind so Emmy decided to go on ahead and just meet up with is at the finish line. I wish I could have crossed the line with her but I'm so proud that she wanted to push herself and go on ahead.  Brendan got a picture of her finishing with a friend and I'm sure she was super happy. Here are a couple of pictures from today!!  A few of my friends from Stroller Strong joined us! She had a big cheerleading section!!

Girls on the Run

 Emmy has been doing Girls on the Run twice a week for the past two months.  They meet twice a week and run around 2 miles each day in preparation for a 5K next weekend.  Today they ran a practice 5K and then had bagels afterward.  Emmy has really enjoyed it and I can't wait to run in the race with her next weekend!!!
