Those are some words I never thought would come out of my mouth! Yesterday was the annual Preston Hospital 5K Fun Run/"Walk" and Hayden and Jared were so excited that I kinda got roped into it too. It actually wasn't that bad, I can say that because I only WALKED it with Tara (my sister in law) and we were very proud that we were not last! Our time was 40 minutes which considering we DIDN'T run we were walking along at a pretty brisk pace. I am VERY proud of both HAYDEN and JARED however. It was Jared's first "offical" 5K and he ran it in 20 min 58 sec! WOW! I would have died!! (That is just under a 7 min/mile average.) Hayden and her cousin Connor did the 1 mile run. She is pretty fast herself (she must take after her Dad) She ran it in 8min 4 sec! I don't think I have ever run a mile that fast! She took 5 place of all the runners the sad part was that the first 3 people where all 3 girls in her age group of 7-12 and then her cousin Conner beat her by 2 seconds. She did feel a little better when I told her that she beat the 2 boys who got 2nd and 3rd and Jared also gave her his medal and that helped. Jared is going to have her out at the track before too long he thinks he has found a cheap way to pay for college (He-he-he!)

Congrats! That is so fun! I could never run that fast! Way to go Hayden and Jared!
Well good job you guys! Hayden must be a fast runner, i would have still been running the mile when Jared finished the 3K! Anyways, happy birthday to Bryce!!
Good Job!!! Way to go Julie.. I am impressed by all of you guys, keep up the good work.
I just noticed for a proud dad Jared sure has a scowl on his face. Hayden looks like a real runner!
That is funny you got roped into running....hee hee hee! Maybe all of Jared's crazy exercising is rubbing off. Looks like fun. Good job Hayden and all y'all.
