John and Luke ran the BBQ festival 5K this year during Mother's Day weekend. There were around 400 participants this year...not counting Luke. The run took place on a Saturday morning.
Pre-race....Luke wasn't enjoying this time much. He's having his breakfast milk here.
Daddy and Luke at the start line, waiting for the race to begin.
Here is Luke in his shades with his walking buddy. He started toting the bunny around on our walks in the neighborhood, so we brought him along for the race. The best part is the bunny sings and moves. We get lots of laughs as we walk.
The race is on. They've gone about a quarter of the way at this point. John's strategy was to start in the back with the walkers so he could pass the "slow people" along the way. That's pretty good encouragement to get you to the finish line.
WE MADE IT!!! I didn't get to the finish line before they did because I stopped to get water and pick up a few groceries. John said he let Luke out of the stroller to run to the finish line the last 25 feet of the race. I am still disappointed I didn't get to see that, but John said Luke was all smiles and laughing as the crowd cheered him on.
Following the race, Luke was checking out the dogs in the crowd. Since he has had some time around big dogs at Grammy & Pappy's farm, Luke shows little to no fear around other big dogs, which is a little scary for Mommy. This was a friendly German Shepherd that Luke liked.
