The Long Beach Race 2015


We love the Long Beach races in October so in 2015 we added Lena to the race roster.  She ran the Aquarium Kids Fun Run which is one mile long.  She wasn't super thrilled about running but ended up being very competitive as she tried to pass people along the way.  It made for a great strong finish.  She loved getting her medal and admission to the aquariums as well.  Dan and I ran the half marathon this year tag teaming as we pushed the double BOB stroller with the girls inside.  It took us around 3 hours to run the 13 miles but we made it and everyone did great!  It was funny to pull over and change a diaper at mile 5 but it was a very bonding experience.

After!  It was really hot!
