First Ever Hendrix Family 5K!

It was a BEAUTIFUL spring day in Deagu. Perfect for our family to take part in a 5K on this Easter weekend. Participants included our friends the Fiscus family along with lots of friends from the community and PWOC.

It was a grueling course (okay - maybe my training left something to be desired....and yes, it would have helped if Lara and I didn't talk so much and worried more about breathing....but what fun would that be?) but the scenery, fresh air (at least laking in yellow sand), and company made up for any pain.

Jimmy (4th) was tuckered by the end of the run....but little Colin said he was up for a 10K (it's in his genes - he's planning a marathon next year).

Way to go you guys! That's awesome you did your first 5k as a family!

I can't imagine you and LFF were chatting while you were running. That's so uncharacteristic of you two... Ha ha!

See you soon!

This from LFF's mom -- hard to believe Lara has met someone who likes to talk as much as she does! That just NEVER happens. Glad to see you are getting your boys started early. I hope they enjoy running as much as they've enjoyed riding the 5K.

Tera, I love your pics of Jimmy. He's a little doll and I'm so glad he's a friend of Colin's.
