Disney's Minnie Marathon weekend is this weekend and Elle and I both participated this morning. I ran the 5K and Elle ran in the 200 yard dash for 4-6 year olds. It was a lot of fun! The 5K went through Epcot. Elle's race got off to a rocky start. She was really excited about the race and before she went to line up was "practicing" and fell and skinned her knee. We tried to act like it wasn't a big deal and help her bounce back in time for the race, but it was pretty bad. We got her cleaned up in time for the race, but needless to say her morale was down! Jay stayed with her at the start and Brooks and I headed to the finish line to cheer her on. Once the race started she got a little nervous and Jay ended up running with her. There were several other parents who ran as well. She was proud of her medal, and we told her that she definitely won for "fastest with a boo-boo". She seemed OK with that! Hopefully this will be the first of many mother-daughter races to come!
