Just for fun,
Here I am in the River Ridge Polar Bear 5K run, just a few miles outside of Babylon Gardens.

Having a ball, hoping more will join us next year for the race

It was good fun.

Check out this lil' guy at the finish line: We crossed at approximately the same time. I either jogged or speed-walked the whole way, so this four year old must've ran full-tilt for 5 kilometers. He had told his dad that all he wanted to do was beat the dog, and he did! I didn't make it easy for him either. He was all smiles the whole way, except when I started catching up with them when we were running into a 22-degree, 8 MPH headwind (Fur helps) :)

Later on, I noticed that his photograph of us talking popped up in the Lansing state journal as part of the event coverage.

Man, I wish you were my neighbor. You'd be one my best friends ever(but, I live in Canada and you live in the states so too bad).
