Day 2,113: Winship Win the Fight 5K

Today we took part in a nice 5K around the Emory University campus, the Winship Win the Fight 5K. It's our fourth race with Kiernan and the first one that we haven't used the car seat with the BOB stroller.

All in all, it was a good race. It's a little hilly around the campus but I don't think it bothered either one of us that much as we winded our way around.

Near the end of the race, some guy said that we were doing good and that we were the "first stroller." I don't think there's such a category but when I ran ahead to take a picture of our strolling duo near the finish line, I decided to take over the reins when I saw some dude with a stroller coming near.

Even with a stroller, I don't want to get outkicked at the end of the race! The race felt good -- I didn't feel like I was even breathing hard. I had a lot left in the tank and sort of felt like I wanted more race to run.

We finished in what likely was our fastest 5K with Kiernan, not that it matters.

In the past I was interested in PRs but I look forward to these family outings!
