Pat's Run--Phillips Family Run!

Towards the end of April we did another family run...
they have become tradition.
The kids LOVE to do them and Trav and I do to and he's great
at finding them for us.

I had to keep reminding him that I was almost 7 months pregnant and probably won't 
be able to keep the same pace...he didn't really hear me,
but it also didn't matter too much because the race was SO crowded and 
we got stuck with a LOT of strollers so it wasn't ideal running conditions
 (not for a time anyway).

We had to be in line super early but the kids were troopers!



The race was in memory Pat Tillman (a football player and veteran 
that was killed in the line of duty).  I had no idea it as such a HUGE race...
30,000 runners!

He was #42 when he played professional football so the adults ran 
4.2 miles and then they had a race for the kids after that was .42 miles.
So they were official runners too!
Which was a big deal!



Here we are after our race...so thankful for our jogging strollers!

in our matching shirts!
 

Then Ellie and I ran the .42 miles together.  
She did awesome!!
This preggo mom could barely keep up with her...
she's a runner for sure.
Passed up the 6 year olds with no problem! :)

Trav came behind us with both strollers and the other two kids...
Gracie ran the whole way and Emmy for a little bit.
Wish I had a pic of him crossing the finish line...quite the circus!

Way to go girls!
