Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

On the last day of running camp, they have a final race - a one mile and a two mile.  Abby decided she wanted to run the one mile race.  I watched her start and then proceeded to walk down the street to cheer her on.  I saw a blue shirt whirl by and waited for a few minutes.  I then realized that blue was shirt was Abby and I had missed her.  She was in first place!!!!

I ran down to the finish in hopes that I would catch her crossing the finish line.  I was totally surprised by her effort today.  Running camp/exercise is NOT (I repeat NOT) her favorite thing!!!  She won the race and "chicked" the field (meaning she was the first girl and first overall).  I was SO darn proud of my Abby-girl.  I knew she had a bit of fire under all her freckles!!

Abby - one mile 8:02:89
