Running Wild for Orangutans

Misty finished her second 5K this morning! This time she participated in the 5th annual Zoo Run at the Birmingham Zoo, which was themed "Run Wild for Orangutans" (it was a benefit for the Orangutan Conservatory).

The girls and I cheered from the sidelines, where we were joined by our friends David and Hayes from our church core group. Kristin (David's wife / Hayes' mom) was running with Misty, but they didn't stick together much past the starting gate.

While we waited for the race to finish, the girls played at the zoo playground (where there was a peacock hanging out!) and Kendall got her face painted.

Misty ended up shaving a bit of time off her previous run in the Rupshaker 5K. She's still going strong!

Here's her finish...
