We were up and at 'em early to get ready for the 2nd annual Spring Hill Kids' Marathon. In an unfortunate turn of events, Little Rhettiboo caught a case of flu/strep and was still on the mend when the race rolled around. He was in the dumps about not being able to run. Especially since he was last year's first place winner. He and his buddy had big plans to cross the finish line together (last year his bud was the second place finisher). Ahh, it would've been cute. Oh well. Here are the brothers three prior to run time:
We were excited to be race-reunited with our friends Cade and Cavin for this year's run! It's been a few years since we experienced the race scene together. Look at those photo bombers. Tsk tsk tsk.
The fifth grade ran first.
Cade A. was tearing.it.up.
Cade Morgan was Mr. Nice and Steady.
It paid off in the end as he was a third place finisher. He moved up one, maybe two spots from last year. I was so proud of him!
G was up next.
Rollin' at a nice pace....
He came into the homestretch with only one person ahead of him but three trying hard to catch up. He sealed the deal with a second place trophy!
I caught a quick snap with G, Cavin, and Brady, his buddy from school.
I couldn't let the day pass without a picture of Rhett and his bud, Jett. They had been looking forward to this race day forever! Rhett stayed through all the races so that he could cheer his friend on. Hopefully next year they'll be able to have a little friendly competition again.
Yay for another race down in the books!
