Today I went to Arlene's 1-mile Family Fun Run, sponsored by the Howard County Striders. I used to run this race every summer with my mom when I was maybe 3-8years old. The race is a around her neighborhood, starting and ending at her house, every or every other Tuesday during the summers. I decided to go back and race again this year. I took Brenden, and my parents came to watch. My goal was to finish the mile in under 9 minutes. I finished in 7:40!! :) 35th place overall (I don't know out of how many). And Brenden did pretty awesome too. I passed him on the loop back, and he finished in 15 minutes. Very nice for his first run this summer.
