Sunday was awesome. It was the day of the Kilimanjaro Marathon, half-marathon, and 5k. I ran in the 5k, and it was my first race ever, but definitely not my last! A whole group of i-to-iers ran in Skydive t-shirts for Zak and Hayden which was really cool. My friend Nick ran the half and was the first Mzungu to finish; he was ridiculously fast. Nodd, Chris, and our Massai, Zac, also ran the half. A lot of us ran in the 5k, but we split up quite a bit because everyone had different speeds. I ran with Claire's roomate Chris and we finished in 28 minutes!!! I was really excited because I am a slow runner (10min miles usually) and I haven't run more than 1.5 miles since I've been here (and I haven't run at all since the beginning of February!). Anyways, it was just a really good time, and I can't wait to run more when I get home!
I don't have time right now, but I am going to start blogging about the kids in my classroom, individually. I'll work on that next time though!
