The Family that Runs Together....

Last Sunday saw the five of us leaping out of bed at the crack of dawn on a cold, wet, miserable Melbourne winter's morning in order to compete in the 19th Olympic Dream Run. We were there to celebrate with Ev as she completed her 10th consecutive run, the rest of us with a somewhat more sporadic commitment to running 5 km once a year early on a Sunday. The joy at coming to the end of the race was elevated to see some special friends there to cheer us through the last 100 metres! Caleb finished 49th overall, and 7th in his age grouping, in a respectable time of 21:27. Sam and I brought up the rear of the family field, with me managing to pip Sam on the finish line. Rachel and Ev split the difference between us.
And now I look forward to a longer lie in next Sunday... zzzzz
Congratulations to Ev on doing it every year for 10 years!
