Brett ran in the 2007 Redbud Classic
Sometimes as a parent, your kids do things that completely amaze you. Things that you didn’t teach them, things that are outside of you and your parenting. Yesterday Brett ran a 10K in a local event, the Redbud Classic. Not only did he run the entire 6.4 miles, but he really ran well and loved every minute of it. According to the results, he finished 28th in the under age 15 category, though only he and one other boy were under the age of 10.
He ran with his mom who had been planning on running in the event for several weeks. We were surprised when Brett expressed an interest but completely supported him in giving it a try. Holly made him stay with her because it was his first time running that far and because he’s only nine. But she felt like she probably held him back and that he could have gone faster had she not asked him to stay with her. Next year we’ll have to give him a little more freedom. Maybe I can participate – it’s been awhile since I did any distance running, though I think I could probably get in shape to do a 10k without too much effort.
All-in-all, great job, Brett!
