Once again it was time for the annual Banbury Ward 5K. Even though it's only the second year our ward has been doing this, it has quickly become a neighborhood favorite. I know Jeff and Logan have been talking about it for weeks. (Mostly because Jeff wanted to defend his title from last year.) Logan too was determined to run faster than he did the previous year.
I was happy to volunteer my efforts with the coordinating, (I mean, come on! Anything to get out of running!), and this year Eden and I enjoyed cheering for all the runners. During the "Kids K" Logan ran by so quickly I didn't even get a good picture. And then as the runners were coming back, I was totally caught off guard to see Logan near the front of the pack. He and his buddy Mally ran the WHOLE way! Logan was so fast! (Just like his Mama...hee hee!)
I love to watch Jeff gear up for events like this. He is such a nice guy, and humble to boot, but I see that competitive streak come out. He WANTED that golden shoe again! This year he decided to push the girls in the stroller for the three miles. It was a family run! It was a close finish, with a sprint at the end! Jeff didn't realize that the guy behind him was gaining on him quickly, and we were all cheering 'em both on, but Jeff managed to squeak through with the win. That makes Jeff the reigning Banbury 5K king for another year.
All the ward kids

So fun!! We wish we could have been there.
I've wanted to put something like this together for our ward but I'm afraid my family would be the only ones to show up - seriously! So fun!
