Last night was our first annual MO to CO 2 mile walk, (or 5K run, but honestly who does that?). We had lots of fun walking 2.07 miles in about 40 minutes. Bree and I both commented on how good we felt and how we would have been huffing and puffing without Curves. It's good for something! I was hot and sweating, but didn't even feel out of breath. We went up and down hills and my kids did a great job of mostly running the whole time. No whining and good attitudes. We all paid $15.00 to help the church raise money to go to Colorado. They go every year at the end of July for their annual NYR trip (National Youth Roundup). I went when I was younger and it is a powerful trip. On the side of a mountain, surrounded by Christians, good attitudes, awesome music, and lots of baptizing....what could be better? I am thankful I went when I was younger, and will make sure my children have the opprotunity when they get bigger.
As you can see in the picture, we had a pretty good turnout, but not huge. We should have had a TON of people there, there was plenty of notice and it was a good time in the evening, not too early/not too late. I wish the walk would have been more publizied (sp?) at church...it would have been good to hear some of the youth talk and have them ask for support. A good experience and I will definitely be there next year.
