Comments:

Brandon had so much fun in his 1st 5k and I am so proud of him. Last year at 3 he ran the Marathon Mile at Legoland and went 13:09 he is such a little runner..... He always tells me that he wants to do an Ironman with his dad so maybe 2020 we will be crossing the finish line at an Ironman event together....
