Race Day

Today was the big race. Todd's first 5K which is approximately 3.2 miles. He had a great time. He started off the race saying he was gonna just stick with the team, but about a third of the way into it, his competitive edge came out. He finished in 30:20 which put him 38th out of 149 runners. Which is great considering the first probably 15 runners were all young track stars from the high school. And this is his first race ever. He was saying he would like to run in other races as well. The first picture above is him all serious, stretching and getting ready. The second is the team just before they started to run. The third is Todd crossing the finish line and the final one is of all of the people who participated from Longhorn, which is 9 of the 12 who are participating in the Biggest Loser challenge. The guy with the tan hat on is Ken. He is the one who started this whole thing by asking Todd if the restaurant would sponsor him in the Biggest Loser challenge. He has lost 41 pounds so far and is 7th in the ranking for the Biggest Loser so far. One of the girls from the restaurant who couldn't run today is actually 4th in rankings. So everyone is enjoying the competition.
Well, I guess that is all for now. I am off to fold laundry....yeh!!!!
