We did it... HOORAY!

Saturday was a very monumental day for the Haught family!
Sam and I finished our first race together.
5K - Check
I was not prepared for the course. I didn’t know that we would be running up sandy hills!!! I seriously almost passed out going up the last hill (seeing black spots probably aren’t a good thing). The description of the race was “hard packed gravel road” which equaled SAND.
Yes, at some parts it felt like I was running on the beach!
In conclusion I DID IT!!!
I ran the whole thing without stopping to walk. A person could have speed walked at my pace towards the end but none the less, I DID NOT WALK!
April 24… it’s on ROUND 2. I think I like it!

Thanks Lepowphoto.com for the great shots!
Erika this picture makes me laugh so hard!
