Hog Jog 2010

Our family has participated in our town's annual HOG JOG for many years! Here's last year's version (here). Our family has been in our local paper 2x! It's such a great family event!
This morning was no exception! Jon pushed Henry and Laney while he ran the 10K (6 miles) with his dad. Pre-race. And they're off! Jon, the little kiddos and his dad finishing up! Jon said that sweet Henry slept the whole race. And Laney? She waved to all of the spectators along the route!
Henry was ready to run around after riding in the trailer! Emily and I planned to run the 2 mile race, but she's been out of training commission since her tonsillectomy. Next year we are in though!
Next came the Runt Jog, which is a children's run. Laney ran in the 4 and under age group. AND SHE WON! MY BABY WON THE WHOLE RACE! Hooray Laney! (It was sooo hot and muggy, so my camera started to get foggy.) Next, was the 6-7 age runners. Here's Emily waiting with her friend Jenna. Ready to start! Emily finishing! She did such a wonderful job (around 6th place, and the first girl), especially since just having surgery! The girls may have been more excited to receive their ribbons and free ice cream!
I'm so proud of my runners (and trailer riders)!
