The Hammonds Phamily: Capitol 10K

Capitol 10K

As goes the saying, everything is bigger in Texas. We don't do anything small not even our road races.

For the first time, our whole family participated in a road race together. Mark and I ran in the capitol 10k with the kiddos in our double wide jogging stroller. Us and the 23,000 other participants.
We ran as part of a Scott and White team.

It was a nice run with great weather. The kids were very cooperative and well-behaved. Mark did a spectacular job of maneuvering the stroller between the masses of people and no injuries were inflicted.
