The second annual Jones Jingle Jog was held at an indoor track. This made for some serious competition. It's a good thing the track wasn't that busy, because we had quite the group with matching headbands and all!
Here is the gang before we got started.
Brandon hasn't quite gotten that competitive edge yet:)
I don't think these two have either... H/H!AND THEY'RE OFF...
Jordan and Amber planned the event this year and decided to to a relay, since we were on a track. We did boys against girls and each leg ran either a 200 or 400 meter.
The girls got off to a great start...
...and despite what it appears, I think the girls still won!!
After the relay, we all enjoyed the exercise and time together.
Adam actually did a quarter of a mile! He ran two times around the track without stopping. I was pretty impressed.
All the kids got to run through the tunnel and of course there were awards...
It was a fun day. Jordan and Amber prepared "racing bags" that had treats in it for after the run.
I think this is such a fun tradition my parents started last year. It is neat to see everyone be involved in some way and it is a great way to be active after all that holiday food! Even members of our family who couldn't be there, did something to be a part.
