E the Athlete

Today was a big day for E. First we all got up early, bundled up, and headed out into the cold (it was in the 30's!) for the Five Points of Life Kid's Marathon. Kids were required to have walked or run at least 25 miles prior to today's race. At Littlewood's Morning Mile E has already racked up 75+ miles!! So he was good to go, but sadly little bro had to watch from the sidelines. Today's run was 1.2 miles, which he half ran, half walked in about 18 minutes. It was great fun for all, and my shins seemed to have handled this run well.

While waiting M got to play with this random dog (I have no clue who he is supposed to be).

After the run E and M got to hang with UF's Albert and Alberta.

Later today E had his karate belt test. This time it was for his purple belt. His kata was Heian Nidan (Peaceful Mind #2). He did an excellent job on his kata. It was hard to see his sparring match, but I did get some footage of him practicing with his little friend. Enjoy :-)
