The Millsers do Bolder Boulder 2013

It is our 6th year of Bolder Boulder since the kids have arrived. So, Tyler has done 6 and Cody has done 4. Since we've been busy, we haven't had any chance to practice but it turned out alright!!

Tyler finally managed to do the entire 10 K on his own feet without being carried while Cody, despite giving a good effort of a few miles last year was carried the entire way, just because we wanted to do it fast! He was finally let out at the entrance of the stadium just so that we can say he went past the finish line himself! :)

Tyler seemed to feel really proud of his achievement and did the whole thing without much complaints. Of course, he had to visit every sprinkler along the way which was a good distraction! You could tell the last 1-2 miles was starting to wear him out.

Given his good performance, he was allowed to choose what we were eating for lunch and his choice was Shrimp Tempura, Zuchinni(only because Cody hates it) and strawberries! We went to a Japanese restaurant to indulge him and he got everything apart from strawberries!!

Everybody in good spirits before the start

2 miles!!

Trying hard to get soaked

Completely soaking wet

If the sprinkler didn't get him wet enough, he pours it over his head!!!
