Nix's 5K

So you want to hear about my 5 1/2 year old running a 5k? He did awesome! He finished in 33:18, those are 10:45 minute miles. They competed in the 14 and under category, and he finished 17th out of 23. He was more concerned with staying with his cousins than doing his best, especially in the beginning, he kept stopping to wait for one of his cousins that was behind, two cousins took off ahead in the beginning. Funny thing, the little ones finished in the opposite order than they were in the beginning. There was some competitiveness, some crying, some blocking. But in the end, they all finished strong! Which is most important. They are strong kids, I am amazed by this accomplishment! I love them all!
