At 8:00 Me, Mom and Aidan are in line to get our stickers for the race. This time, since it is our first race, Me and Aidan will be running. While standing in line, I told Mom:
'I think I will get number 111!'
And guess what? I got that exact number! :) I found that cool. So, with my number in my hand, I was given a tee-shirt. I like the tee-shirt a lot, in fact one of the reasons I wanted to race. For a tee-shirt! The shirt is white, and looks like this:

I did my first mile in 9 minutes! (Is that good?) The first to second mile, though, was rough. I walked that one mainly. There was so many hills, also! But, I overcame each one! And thankfully, I was not last!! :) I did, however, feel sick many times. I felt like I would throw up, quite frequently. My ears hurt, my legs felt weird, and my head hurt. But, I kept moving. When I am so close to the finish line, I had to run down a hill, my Mom starts screaming:
'Come on, Aislinn!!! COME ON I RUN!'
me: *throws hands up and walks*
'COME ON, AISLINN!'
So, I booked it. I passed the woman in front of me and ran. Fast. Faster. Then really fast. (The downward slope helped.) Toward my last few yards the announcere is yelling,
'HOMESTRECH C'MON!' With her microphone. When I crossed the line, my time was annouunced, but Mom and I dont remember my time. So we guessed 38 min. My time gets faster every time. :) Aidan, who finished before me, came in 3'rd for his age group. Unfortunatly, they only gave out awards to the top 2. Boo.
Well, I will post photos soon. Thank you!
God bless and Love,
361 More days,
Aislinn
