Riley participated her her Girls On The Run 5k today. There was a tremendous turnout for the run and many times, the streets of Plymouth were so full of people that the run was more of a walk, but I'm pretty sure that this event was more about the celebration of the young ladies that the program is helping develop, and less about a 'race'.
Riley really enjoyed the Girls on the Run program, made some new friends, and learned a lot about herself, peer pressure, self esteem, self-respect, and healthy lifestyle. Next year, Kennedy will be old enough to participate too and then dad can join in the fun too!
