Kids on Track

Well, we completed 26.2 miles over the course of 10 weeks this summer. WOW! This was actually our second summer of "running." I use the term "running" a bit loosely because some ran, some walked. They completed the distance though and that is the important thing!

The marathon is sponsored by a local museum called the "Youzeum." Here the kids learn all about healthy eating and exercise. It has been a wonderful program and the kids are always talking about making good choices.

Here are some pictures of the kids at the finale. We ran 1.2 miles around the "quad" on MU campus. They finished with prizes and free admission to the Youzeum. It was a great time!

Before....all smiles!

After.....well, three out-of-four smiling faces!
