Aubrey the Runner...

Ever since Aubrey was a wee baby I have had this feeling that she may take after her aunt and uncle and be a great runner. It could of been the fact that I had to run in circles at night to get her to go to sleep, or maybe that she could outrun me by the time she was 13 months. Either way I believe it's her destiny. (Just don't' tell her dad, he thinks she is going to be the world's greatest soccer player:) When I go out for the occasional run, Aubrey offers to join me in her church shoes. I usually end up sneaking out while she isn't looking, mostly because I fear she may out run me and embarrass her poor mom. The other day she was having fun trying on my running shoes. They look good, don't you think? Maybe Santa will bring her a pair this year. Any Cross-country camps for three year olds that you know of?

so theres no way I'd go up against Aubrey in a race... after chasing her through the grocery store and mall I think she has real marathon potential.. possibly an ironman:)

Will she be ready for the famous Chico Turkey Trot race?? We are counting on you folks to help us make a difference in the team standings!

We are looking forward to the Turkey Trot! Or at least I am...don't know if I can talk Amiel into it.

Will they be offering championship wrestling belts? If so, you can count me in!

Where in the world did this running gene come from? Barbers and sheepherders are not known for their running abilities and prowess.
