dutchess county classic kids race and half marathon :)
Natalie and CJ ran the 1 mile race first. More photos to follow~ Chris has the other ones! CJ did very well- reallly stayed up in front. HOWEVER poor Natalie, who has run the race before, tripped and FELL, scraping both knees and her wrist :(( Needless to say, it slowed her down big time. So I spent some time cleaning her wounds and Chris took her and CJ to the car for the first aid kit.
I was almost late for the half-mary line up but made it just in time. I ran slow but steady, with a few short walk breaks and lots of water/gel/gatorade stops. Did not experience nausea or dry-heaves at the end of the race this time :)
All of us are ready to eat and nap. I feel so bad that Natalie, looking forward to this race, had such a bad time :( Plus, she wasn't feeling well these past few days either.
