I was seriously so impressed with her today! This 5 year old completed something plenty of adults haven't and can't. That is not to say she did not struggle. We walked and even sat down on a bench for a minute and I had to tell her no I would not carry her a few times. I tried to explain how far she had gone, what she had left and how proud of herself she would be at the end when she did it all by herself. I felt a bit militant but when she saw and crossed the 3 mile mark, knowing we only had a little bit left she lit up and took off and I knew I had done a good job. I love this little bit and cannot wait for us to run together some day.
