…a half marathon (for Jennifer to run-she won her division), the 5K (Henry, Becca and Emily riding in a stroller pushed by Adam was their race) and the 1K was to be run by Caroline and myself.  What I didn’t know was Caroline was planning on running the race not just walking and I needed to keep up with her so I could keep an eye on her.  As the race was starting Caroline turned to me and said, “Come on Grandma…You can do it!”  Then “Let’s go!”  Thanks to Caroline (giving me encouragement the whole way) we did finish…but Caroline beat me.
