Kids Kilometers

As members of the Toledo Roadrunners we get to partake in some fun club events.  Today was the Kids Kilometers, which is a series of races just for the kids.  For those 7 and under, it's a 1K.  Since Sydney's birthday hasn't quite arrived yet, she gets to be probably the oldest 7 year old here!  Unfortunately it was another drizzly day in May, and it didn't stop for the runners.
 And they're off!!
 Sydney and Zack decided to keep their coats on during the run - they were quite warm at the end of the run!
 Here is Sydney in a super close finish.  Sydney came in 3rd in the girls group, just a step behind this girl who took 2nd place.
 Zachary finished 8th in the boys.  A strong finish for both of the kids!
 A bit wet, but still having fun and proud of their accomplishment!
 The kids were given lunch bags as a prize.  After the race, the clouds went away and it was a nice day.  Go figure :)  The kids are starting to expect rain on their runs now!
