Rusty Run {Rachel}

In February one of my dads colleagues had a bad heart attack and stroke. All of his students have been looking for a way to raise some money for him and his family. They came up with the idea of a 5k fun run, and ended up raising $5,000. Most of the route was inside the halls of UVU, but a little bit was outside in the beautiful weather too. It was really cool to see all of these kids helping out in any way they could. Weather it be running the race, or cooking pancakes they all made an effort to support Nick and his family. 

My dad took us kids to it to "help" but they had it pretty under control. However, I did flip some pancakes! When we got there Reed wasn't going to run it, but then one of the UVU baseball players said he would run it with Reed and one of my dad's other colleagues' boy. After the baseball player agreed to run it with him, Reed was all over it! (Although he only ran the first mile or so... but better than I could have done!) It was pretty funny to see Reed a head of the WHOLE pack of runners! (Even the ball player!)

We all had a good time, and I'm glad we could help out Nick and his family.

Love,
