THIS LITTLE GIRL.....

ran her first official 5k race, 3.1 miles in 36 minutes.... somewhere down here, in Cincinnati along the Ohio river. In 18 degree weather. Brr.


Along with hundreds of other 10 year old girls from the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky area.


She also got to meet 2008 gold medal olympian Mary Wineburg. Megan knew she was going to be there, and has read about her in an American Girl magazine. She was really hoping to meet her, so I was so happy that she got a chance to. We were lucky, the area where the girls from Megan's school were supposed to meet before the race was right near where Mary was.




I am so incredibly proud of this amazing little girl. She has worked so hard for what she has accomplished.
I'll add more photos later! :) But right now I'm thawing out.
