Ellie's Run for Africa 2009 - IMG_0530

Saturday morning Samantha and I participated in Ellie’s Run for Africa, a 5K race through Warner Park to benefit church and school projects to help out children in a Nairobi. We also had Samantha’s brother and childhood friend stay with us the night before, and my mom’s sister turned in her first run after having her baby boy in April.

It was a fun day at the park and another “personal best” time at around 41 minutes. I am still shooting for the mid-thirties, and Samantha already has a few races picked out for later this summer. My phone has an app called “Run Keeper” that tracked my race.
