What a night! We watched toddlers roll melons(downhill, so it was a hoot!) then kids run the mile, then we all took off in the 5K and 10K. It was hot, but the course was beautiful, and we all finished in good time. Hung out with the Sapienza family, Russ and Amy, who are SO coaches, and Karol Christianson, who lives right on the course and came to cheer us on. Free melon ice cream to the runners too! Danny felt sick afterwards, and we had to skip a late snack at Karols and head home. Probably just as well, we got home after 10 and had to take showers! And we were hungry, because with the race timing we didn't eat dinner. So we all got to bed late, tired but proud!
