Today we got to go to Independence High School for the Schilhabel Strong 5k run/1 mile walk. Our friend Tyler Schilhabel had an accident over a month ago and is now paralyzed from the chest down. Today we got to walk to show our support for Tyler.
We walked with our friends Emi and Nina while Emi's husband Tyson ran the 5k. Steve came to show his support but due to his knee being hurt he stayed in the stands and took the photographs for us.
We actually did pretty well. I'd been walking with Emi and Virginia on and off for a while but I was worried I wouldn't be able to do a mile. Come to find out we've been walking close to a mile everytime. So today was pretty fun.
There was a great turn out. So many there to show their support. It was amazing.
Our mile course took us along the outside of the baseball field. When we hit the grass it was like adding 5 lb weights to our ankles. We were pushing the girls and the grass was tall and wet.
I felt so good after walking...I didn't even think if felt like a mile. We had a great pace and even passed people along the way. Shocking!
Crossing the finish line.
She really wanted to walk but there was no way she would've been able to keep up and not start chasing butterflies or something. So she rode along next to her friend Nina.
