Rimrock 5k

I got to run in the Rimrock 5k (3.1 miles) fun run on friday, the last day of school! It was so hard to keep going, my legs felt numb right before I finished. There were only three 5th grade girls me, Hailey Saunders, and Laurana Wheeler, so each of us got an award! I got 1st, Hailey got 2nd, and Laurana got 3rd.

This is me, my classmate Hailey, my 4th grade friend Addy, and her older sister Ashton. I came in 1st in my division, beating my classmate Hailey by 1 second! My time for running 3.1 miles was 28 min 56 sec. Seth, Kaleb, Kai, and Mom came to cheer me on and run with me a bit! Seth ran about 1 and 1/2 miles! All the while the rest of the students enjoyed the festivities in the back of the school! After the run, the runners got to have: Popsicles, lemonade, water(of course), and bread! After I was done with the racers spoil, we went around back to join the fun! It was so cool! I definitely want to do it again next year!
