Highlights Along My Journey to my Fist Half

My Journey to my first half has been very interesting.   I have had a lot of cool highlights along this journey.  My first highlight of this journey was being featured, with my mom, in the news paper here in Athens.  Another highlight was my family and I making a video of my journey.   My third and most fun highlight was making my costume for my first half.
     I've always thought it would be cool to be famous.  During my journey I had the chance to be famous in my city.  The Athens Banner Herald heard about my story and wanted to write an article  about my running  journey with my mom.  See link for story.

I enjoyed training so much that I decided to make a video about all my training.  I wanted to use the Eye of the Tiger song and be like Rocky training.  I wanted to run by all the tourist attractions here in Athens.  In  my video you will see such places like, Sandford Stadium, The Arches on UGA campus, Memorial Park Zoo, Sandy Creek and  Chick-fil-a. Check out my video on YouTube.

One of the funnest(lol)  things about the Chick-Fil-A race is that you get to dress up just like at a Disney Race.  I enjoyed my training but making the costume was even more fun.  I wanted to be a super cow, so I went with #BATCOW .

I used my mom's craft supplies to create my batcape.
