Today was Brooke’s first running race!  We had been practicing running the 1K distance around our neighborhood for about a month.  Brooke has always been a good runner and it is something she really likes to do.  She was very excited to run her own race and get her very own metal.  After picking up her packet and bib we got ready at the start line.  Brooke ran the entire 1K!  She always stopped to walk once or twice during practice and I kept waiting for her to ask to walk but she kept powering on.  She finished the race in 05:40 with a 09:07 min/mi pace!  She did a great job and we are so proud of her.  Way to go Brooke!
