Mayor's Run for the Trails

The City of Johnston held it's 8th Annual Mayor's Run for the Trails at the end of August. The race raises money for the trail system throughout Johnston. The boys have been wanting to run a race and this one has a kids run around Terra Lake, so we got signed up! There was a great turn out for the kids run...if you look in the background you can see me holding up G, he's wearing the white hat!
 And we are off and running
 The run was just about 0.6 miles long, 1 loop around the lake. The boys did awesome! Nearly ran the whole thing and finished strong!
 Than it was my turn for the 5k!
 And we are off!
 I ran the whole thing too and ended up in 2nd place and got a high five from our mayor!
 Our mayor, Paula Dierenfeld, is an avid runner herself and was there to start the race and hand out finisher medals!
 The weather was perfect and we had a great time running!
See you next year for the 9th annual race!
