Is it nature or nurture? Hmmm. I think it’s a little of both.

So to celebrate the last day of summer,

I did a mud run yesterday.

And I didn’t do it alone.

Number 1 did it too.

So did Number 2.

And Number 3.

And Number 4.

My dad, even did it with us.

We ran.

We got dirty,

and we had fun.

Number 3 was pretty psyched to do something so grown up with his big brothers.

And his Papa.

How cool is that?

How many kids can say they did a mud run with their grandpa?

I had fun with Number 4.

Who,

according to this guy from the Yes network,

was the “star of the race.”

Such a star, in fact, that he took a little video clip of her, which he said,

“would definitely make the cut for the show.”

Apparently she’s going to close out a show on the network called The Running Show.

It premieres on September 7th… Look for her then.

We celebrated at the end with some dancing.

Number 4 busted out all the moves.

What a great day.

I can’t say for sure, but I think at 6 years old and and 68 years old,

Number 4 and my father may have been the youngest and the oldest people entered in the whole thing.

And I’ve created a monster.

My dad wants to do another one.

Next month.

I guess the apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree 😉
