Hooray for 5k!

Run, that is. $5,000 wouldn't be bad, either.

Anyway, most of the Beatty family participated in a "Beat the President" 5k run this morning as part of Dixie College's Freshman's Weekend. I'm happy to say that everyone finished and no one was incapacitated :)

Krissia finished first out of our family with a time of 21 minutes. Not bad for someone who hasn't run since April! Jefferson finished next in about 26 minutes, and was proud of himself for not stopping to rest at all during the race. Bronson and DEl came in around the 30 minute mark, with both of them posting times which beat the college president. Everyone that did so won a 25% discount coupon for merchandise at DSC's bookstore.

Mathison had a late night and no nap the day before, so he was sleeping at home with Mom. I totally plan on running next time; it sounded like so much fun!

I'm so proud of my family members, as this was their first 5k for each of them....go Beatty family!!

I would like to know who would win between you and Krissia. I am almost tempted to put money on you.
