YMCA's Healthy Kids Expo 2012

Samson participated in a 0.75 mi run at the YMCA's Healthy Kids Expo on May 12. The boy LOVES running, and so any time i see something having to do with a run, i sign him up.

We left Hank at home with Nanny, due to the chilly morning temps, but T4 headed down to be there by 8:00 am. Sam and Thom had a good time "warming up" by running around the cones that were set up. Sam saw a couple friends that he knows.



Sam's race started at 8:30 and he was raring to go! Soon enough, he rounded the bend to the finish. He hasn't learned the art of sprinting with a few feet left to go. Instead he petered out! But it didn't matter; he still clinched 2nd place for boys in his age group, which meant receiving a big heavy shiny medal! He was SO PROUD of that thing, he wore it all day. He'da worn it during his baseball game later that day (talk about being worn out by bedtime!), but i said he had to leave it home.
