This past Saturday, the Green Bay Packers held the 1st Annual Packers 5K Run/Walk. My son, Zman, being the HUGE Packer fan that he is was one of the 3006 participants.
I have to say, for his first race (excluding the March For Babies walk he has done for the last 3 years), that he ran, I am mighty impressed and unbelievably proud of him.
Here’s some pictures of him closing in on the last mile of the course.



I am pleased to report that he did indeed complete his first 5K.
His official results are as follows:
bib number: 1238
age: 11
gender: M
location: Green Bay, WI
overall place: 2182 out of 3006
division place: 63 out of 74
gender place: 1050 out of 1269
time: 42:08
pace: 13:34
He’s already having me look into more races for him to do.
Can we say, Proud Mommy Moment??

Yay!!! Did he love it?! I did! It was so much fun! Tell him to keep running…it’s much harder to get into it when you’re 30(like me). He did a great job!
