At Lake Placid they had the Ford challenge course, or whatever its called, too. Very fun to watch. Its so good to hear of kids being active!
After my mum did her first IM, she went to visit my cousins at school. That day they had a Terry Fox Run, and she ran with the kids. My cousin kept saying "that's her, that's her" to all his friends. He was super proud of his aunt. And this summer they came to see us in one of our Olympic distance tris. The two boys came out and met me on the run course, they ran along beside me for the last kilometer, then turned around, ran back out and did the same with my mum!
