this past spring emma participated in a program called girls on the run. it is an after school program that teaches girls about self-esteem, living healthy and prepares them to participate in a 5k race at the end of the season. emma loved it. she made new friends and had lots of fun.
the 5k was in richland at a park along the columbia river. any 5k takes some prep but did you know it involved colored hair spray, funky head bands and tatoos?
this is emma with her group and coaches.
originally i was going to be emma's running buddy, but the race ended up being on the day of my trip up to spokane to see wicked. so ned jumped in(or ran in) to be emma's buddy. ned said emma did great and averaged about a 10min. mile. way to go emma!!
