I didn't race as my little guy asked me to pace him in the 5k. He is only 7 ran a smashing 5K race with a time of 26:30. Our 14yr daughter placed 3rd in the 19 and under female category for the 10K with a time of 54:00.

Today is one year later...since our first race as a family and the first race ever for my wife and I. It is a good event on the Toronto Island. So we trekked downtown to the harborfront and take the ferry over to the island. The races go around the island and are very picturesque. I didn't race as my little guy wanted me to pace him in the 5k (his 3rd). He is only 7 and ran a smashing time of 26:30. Our 14yr daughter placed 3rd in the 19 and under female category for the 10K with a time of 54:00. My lovely wife ran the 10k, as did 2 of the ladies from the half-marathon clinic I instruct and they all had personal best times too! It was overcast, chilly, my knee still hurts, I was terribly hung over ( a long story in itself!) the food wasn't as good as last year but seeing my home team do so well made it a great day!
Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don't so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head." - Joe Henderson
