minnie's first race

minnie, christian and i ran a 5K together. 

it was for the river heights apple days celebration. 

uncle tyler joined us too. 

minnie cried for the first little bit.  she was pretty tired.  

i thought i was going to need to stop and feed her, but she pulled through. 

she fell asleep at the top of the hill, right when we got to the top. 

i had planned to stop and feed her at the top of that hill. 

she slept the remainder of the race. 

she is such a good little baby. 

right after the race.  we're all coming off our race high. 

turns out, tyler won a trophy for his age category.
i won a $10 gift card from the raffle.
and, we all scored ourselves some apple pie and ice cream.
this is the kind of race i can get behind for a number of reasons:
1) the entry fee was only $3
2) they allowed baby strollers
3) it was a perfect temperature
4) it started at 9:00 am
5) they had pie and ice cream after the event

hooray for race winners, inc.! 

p.s. the goal was racing to finish...and we did just that.
