The next race Holden did was the Eggleston OK5K and 1mile race. This would be another New Energy event (the 1mile) and then of course, he was running the 5K for the heck of it. We learned the night before the race that it was actually a cross-country run (meaning trails, not road) and it had been raining. So, that means...... MUD! Yuck!
Holden did a great job though no PRs.... it was definitely a different running median than he was used to and the mud didn't make it much easier. Still ran very respectable times... and won 1st place in his age-group for the 1-mile. Woohoo! He had a lot of fun and is lots more comfortable running with this group of kids than he was the first time he ran!
