Sporty Spice?

Sport baby. That's what Kylie has been calling herself lately.

This year when the 'Girls on the Run' flyer came

home from school Kylie decided to give  it a try.

Kirstin participated in it for a few years when

she was younger so Kylie was familiar with it.

Basically your on a girls team from school and

they train from February to the end of May for

a marathon that all the Pittsburgh schools can participate in.

This was the practice run. 

3.5 miles on a very hill-y course to get the 

full experience. Kylie was the first girl to complete

the practice race and she kept pace with one

of the male teachers who is an experience marathon runner.

He was so shocked she was able to keep pace and they actually

did an extra lap plus finished more than 10 minutes

before any other girls!!!

All the other moms kept making comments

about her being lightning fast and I was beaming

with pride. 

I had no idea she was so fast!

She was the first girl from our school

to cross the finish line🏃🏅

She really enjoyed doing

girls on the run,

but after playing softball

she decided she would rather focus

her time and attention on softball.

She was happy with the experience and

hey she got a metal!
