Run With Dogs : The Winning Streak is Broken!

The Winning Streak is Broken!

Posted by: Audrey Post date: June 28th, 2009

So, today was the Spectrum Fun Run! The kidlets and I did the 5k, while Hubby did the 8k as part of the club’s 8k series. He did very well – something along the lines of 37 minutes..

It was the first event for my good friend Judith, which was sort of sentimental cos it was my very first run 2 years ago. She did well in the 2k event. Here we are, I think this was before the run. Thanks, Tim, for taking the photos.

As it turned out, both kidlets finished just outside the placings in their categories. Miss 9 was 4th in primary school girls, and Master 7 (yep, he had a birthday while the blog was sick) finished 4th in primary school boys.

It was a nice morning, weather was good and it wasn’t too cold. I like this run, they raise funds for people with disabilities, and it’s always a nice, low key, friendly event.

The devastating thing was, we didn’t win a lucky draw prize. What on earth is the point of going? <G>

There is a new face at running club, a nice young man who is a very fast runner! He is the spitting image of Sacha Baron Cohen’s new character, Bruno, and I think I’ll have to see the movie now.

School holidays – rest, play dates, movies, local show, all sorts of fun things as well as planning for next term with our new distance ed teacher. All’s good.

Oh well, you can’t win them all (but I was beginning to think you could).
