GOTR run (Sunday)

So I have been postponing posting on the wall because I wanted to get some pictures on the computer, but that hasn't happened yet and it is almost the end of the week. So the run went extremely well. Last year there were around 400 people and this year there were over 700. Since there were so many more people, it was a little harder than in years past. We realized that bathrooms were a bigger problem this year. Other than that, nothing else changed too much. It was raining, so at first people were not as happy. But once people started moving around it was all fine. It is very cute because there is a hair station, where the girls get their hair sprayed with different colors and they can create tiaras. Then they started the run. I call it a run because it is not competitive at all. People really took a while to start. I was the never-ending finish line with my friend. We have been doing this for a few years now. We have rolls of streamers, and we try to get each girl to run through it. It started because at normal races, the first person to finish runs to the finish line tape. But GOTR wanted every girl to feel like they are a winner. It was a lot harder this year because it was raining, so the paper streamers were breaking a lot more than they did in years past. Overall it was a great success
