On June 9th our family competed in the "Utah Valley Family Adventure Race". It was a family race where we had to complete 3 different legs. The 3 legs of the race were Running, Biking and Canoeing. In each leg there was 5 or 6 different pit stops where we had to find the clue and complete the challenge. Some challenges were physically challenging, others were mentally challenging and others were just fun and funny. Our family took 4th place out of 9 teams. Kendra was the youngest contestant to compete. The kids learned that it feels good to do hard things. It took us between 2 and 2 1/2 hours to finish. We didn't finish without some whining, tears and fighting, but we did finish and we finished strong. It was so much fun. We can hardly wait for next years race.
Here we are all fresh and nervous before the race. We didn't know what to expect.
