Two days ago, I ran my first 5k. I finished in 30 minutes! My sister got an award because she finished second in her age group. I was the second eight year old! It was really cool to run with my mom and with my friends, Cecelia Pell and Josie Hahn. I really wish I got a award like my dad and my sister. Also, it would be really cool if I saw you run the turkey trot. And that’s my first time running a 5k.

Eden,
I am so proud of you. I have linked the results here: http://www.runningmaryland.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6537:102712-st-marks-monster-dash&catid=124:xc-2012&Itemid=378
Pretty amazing what you accomplished at such a young age. To put in perspective, I was in 8th grade when I ran my first 5k. I did not finish the race. I quit. It was too hard for me. But you finished, and in a very good time, at eight years old. Such heart you have. Oh the places you’ll go.
Love
Dad
