Dashing through the Show

I ran the 5K, Dashing through the Show (the holiday light show) at Sandy Point State Park.  The race (or stroll for some) was sponsored by the Annapolis Striders, benefiting Anne Arundel Medical Center. I got there early, waited for dark, when the race started at 6:15pm.  It was fun  Families were out running together.  There were young ones, as young as 3, I swear, running, walking, looking at the lights.  Groups of young kids around 6 to 8 were running in little gangs, with parents on the edges, making sure they were ok, but staying out of the conversation.

This whole thing reminded me that as children we love to run and play.  As adults, we should still run and play.  I love that I do that, that I know that. I wish I could share more of that with non-active friends and co-workers.
