Every body had to dress up as a super hero for the race, and I was bat girl and my dad was Heman. You wouldn't believe how funny it was! On the way there, we got to ride to ride a bus and then when we got there, there was so many rides and bouncy houses that it made me dizzy. They had Batman's Batmobile, and I got to sit in it with my little brother. It felt like I was actually in the real batman movie!
After that, we went to the starting line. It was super crowded so I made sure that I stayed close to my family. First, we sang the national anthem. Then, the guy that was speaking into the microphone shouted 3,2,1 Go!!!!! And then the huge crowd started to run. I was so nervous because I wasn't sure how I would do, and I had never run that much since my last surgery.
When I saw the finish line, there were lots of people cheering us on so I ran really fast. Some guy at the finish line even called out my name to the crowd! I was really embarrassed, but I had a lot of fun.
Would I do the race again? YES!!!
The saying for the day is: If you get a chance to run a race for sick kids, do it! It will make them and you feel better.
