500 Kids Day Festival

On Saturday, we headed down to Monument Circle for Gabbie's first official race. We entered her in the 3 year old 2 block race. It was great weather and fun to see all the little 3 years waiting to participate. There was such a large crowd that their were 5 heats of 3 years. Gabbie was in the 4th heat. When the gun went off, she took off in a sprint. Of course as a former track coach, I thought "oh no; she's going to run out of gas" And sure enough about half way through, her sprint turned into a slow jog:) With a little cheering on from her daddy, she finished the race strong. We were so proud. And she was so excited to get her medal and water for finishing! We may have a little athlete on our hands; we will see what the future holds.
