I'm #1!

On Saturday, we went to the Reading Elementary Fun Run, with a 5K for adults, followed by shorter races for the different grades and age groups. I'm a bit of a hypocrit, because I repeatedly told Kaitlyn and Ashley how it didn't matter how they did or what place they got as long as they did their best, but then I was sure excited when I won my age group for the 5K--it admittedly wasn't a very large pool of competitors, but I think it was the first 1st place I've ever taken, after lots of 2nd and 3rd places in high school track events and so forth. Kinda satisfying, I guess.
