Our traditional pre-race selfie. You can see we had to convince a smile out of Tate. This was his first 5K race and he was a little nervous. He wasn't quite sure what to expect. Luckily we had an amazing cheering section.
Working on getting our chips and bibs on prior to the race.
Love all the smiles! We love this race in downtown Cincinnati. The scenery is beautiful and it is for a great cause.
Tate's emoticon face says it all. He was a little nervous at the beginning of the race. He had never run a 5K before, but he did an amazing job. I am so proud of his efforts.
Getting started on our run. We ran along the Ohio River towards both stadiums. First we ran by the Reds baseball stadium, then the Bengals football stadium.
Dad was waiting at the 2 mile marker to take some pictures. Devin was running hard at the 2 mile mark.
Glad to see a smile on his face as he passed by Dad!
Devin pushed himself very hard through the finish. This was a great way to kick off our summer vacation. I guess Devin has un-officially started his cross country training for this fall.
Mom and Tate just about to cross the finish line. Tate was so excited and proud of himself. Running a 5K at 6 years old is quite the accomplishment.
Tate never gave up and finished strong.
Looks like he is flying across the finish line!
Love his huge toothy smile.
Getting a hug from his big brother at this finish line. Devin is one of Tate's biggest cheerleaders. Great to see them supporting each other.
Hot, sweaty and happy.
Enjoying some of the post race festivities-face painting. Devin went with Spiderman.
Tate picked a tiger. These ladies were the fastest face painters I have ever seen.
Love it!
