Jamba Juice Banana Man 5K & Keiki Fun Run

Today it was the kids' turn to shine. Instead of racer I was a cheerleader and spectator.  I vow to be a volunteer at a race in the very near future too!!!

This was the second time the kids participated in this event and this year we got to the event on time so that the kids could participate in the Speed and Quickness Drills with Rich Miano.  They got to do some running and jumping activities and loved it!  They are now asking to attend Speed and Quickness Clinics which is FINE WITH ME since they have added an adult class OH YEAH!!!

The actual Fun Run is over in a blink of an eye since it's only 500 meters and it's also a little chaotic.  Last year I had to carry Noah so that we weren't last.  This year he was excited to run by himself and I was relieved.

We were lucky enough to be at the event with our good friends and their kids so they were all excited about the run and all finished strong and with smiles.

After the run they enjoyed the activities such as the Bounce House, games and Jamba Juice.  We then found a shady spot and sat down to picnic.  With the beach so close by we should have known that there was no stopping them.  As the adults enjoyed food and the shade we watched as they slowly but surely went all in into the water fully clothed. :)  Who can blame them?!!

Today was one of those rare perfect days in Paradise!!
