Jog-a-thon

Danica's school did their jog-a-thon last Friday. They sure got lucky on the weather. It was a beautiful day! Each grade only jogs for 1/2 hour. Danica's time was 1:00-1:30. I got there just after they had started. She ended up completing the 14 laps that she needed in order to win her water bottle (she says that Mira has chewed her old water bottle so she needs a new one). Melissa ran a few laps with her, and I did a couple of laps too (at a very S-L-O-W jog, and I was not the one holding us up).

 She did actually *run* for a little bit.

Her principal is helping her get the bark mulch out of her shoes.

 Melissa did several laps with her.

Sometimes some "persuasion" and encouragement was needed.

 I did a couple of laps with her, too.  All three of us did the final lap, which is why there are no pictures.

That reminds me....I still need to pay up on the pledge I made!
