Mamil Milkathon on 19 Jun 2010

This is the first time the Gems participated in such events. I wasn't sure if both are going to really run but there's always a 1st time. This is also a eye-opener for both to see what a marathon/walkathon looks like, although this is the mini version of those.



The running pack


The girls got up really early by themselves, all excited and ready to go...

look at how excited Amber gets!

Getting ready to drink the milk together with the rest of the kids, to break the world record of having the most kids drinking milk at the same time.




And the race begins...

I only managed to take pictures of Amber coz Pearl had already zoomed much ahead of us with GemPapa. Amber is not as atheletic as Pearl and she usually wants to be carried after a bit of walking, hence, this 1km event is actually a challenge for her and for me. I persisted in not carrying her and keeps motivating and encouraging her and finally she managed to walk the whole 1km.




Pearl is already waiting for us at the finishing line.

This is a fruitful event for our family, as this is not only the first time for the Gems, it's also the first time for the ever-lazy GemMummy who dislike any form of exercises and to be under the sun. We shall try such event again next time!
