Robert's Rumble in the Jungle

9/11/10 1:00 PM - It's 12:20 and Robert has just finished playing a long game that started at 11:00 AM. He played most of the game and was able to be more involved, which means he is winded.

Robert doesn't want to run in the race because he doesn't think he will do good. "It's okay - let's just try our best. You are young and in great shape! You can do it."

Robert and I get there just in time to find his number and pin it on. The gun goes off. Robert has a great race - staying up with everyone that he normally runs with. He finished about a minute behind his normal time at 13:24, but that is okay. He did an excellent job, coming in the top 40% after playing an entire game of soccer.

It was a very busy day for Robert. He is happy to have the activities and sports events over so he can relax and enjoy the rest of his day.
