I ran my first 5k when I was 14. I never imagined I'd be able to finish it but my Mom was training with me so we just kept on. It would have been so inspiring to realize I could run that far at an even earlier age.Kandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00182116228182197268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925337665341056813.post-71031232111273270242011-05-22T09:31:31.882-04:002011-05-22T09:31:31.882-04:00You are certainly a rock star to those kids - that...You are certainly a rock star to those kids - that has to make them feel extra special!!

You can't be fast in those races. GOTR is such a great idea. I wish I were into running when I taught.
