A rock star runner

Glow runs are better with glowy necklaces.

Jordan spent this fall practicing with our local youth cross country program. She only competed in one meet because we were so busy with fun stuff like football games and family travel. But during those practices, Jordan gained some serious stamina. Girlfriend can run.

Just last week, she rain a 5K with me with very little preparation. She walked very little of the race and ended up finishing the 3.1 mile run in 36 minutes. That’s a dramatic six minutes faster than any of the 5Ks we ran together in the last year. I am SO proud of her!

Since I love to encourage a healthy lifestyle with both kids, we’ve tried to find races that are fun and encourage both kids to run. Cameron hasn’t had a lot of interest in joining in on the races lately. (I guess that’s what happens when you’re getting closer to 13.) So these days, Jordan and I are picking the events. Our next race is on Thanksgiving. It’s a run that will help raise money for a local food bank. But why not also encourage you and your friends to donate to Camp No Limits at the same time?

Last year, each time Jordan or I signed up for a race, we encouraged the Born Just Right community to donate to camp. Each time, we raised enough money to send another child to camp. Right now, we’re at $3,195. That means, Jordan and I are hoping you can help us raise $305 by November 27th. Can we do it? I hope so.
