The Lengthen Your Stride 5k

The Church put on a 5k this past Saturday. In order to enter you had to donate at least ten items of food or ten dollars each to go to the local food bank. The announcer said that over a thousand people entered the 5k.

At church most of the people we know are from the primary. Here is Cheyney giving some pre-race advice to one of the kids from our primary class

Cheyn set the pace. She runs more often than I do. She told me during the race that it was 'nice that I would stay back' and run with her. In actuality, I have a fast wife I can barely keep up with. At the end I felt like I wanted to die. We finished the 5k at 27:22 and 27:23.
