Helen Kicks Butt at the Girls on the Run 5k!

So despite only getting 4.5 hrs of sleep due to flying back last night from a business trip to L.A., I decided to brave the cold rain and go watch my cousin Helen run a 5k. She did awesome! As did Tracy, who ran it with her. I can't imagine being able to run a 5k in the 3rd grade. I didn't run my first 5k until I was 24. I always had my mom right me a note to get me out of running the mile in junior high and high school for the presidential physical fitness test. Helen however is a running powerhouse! She ran more than 3 miles in a crowd of about 4,000. And she ran so fast I could barely get a picture of her! She will have to be my runner for my next triathlon relay.
