The sad truth of it all

The sad truth of it all

We started pretty strong — no walking for the first mile, and we were enjoying ourselves.

Then during our first walking break, a small girl went running by. We knew we had to step up the pace.

So we’d run a bit, and walk a bit, all the while never quite pulling away from her.

In the end, as we approached the Olympic Stadium finish line, this 8 year-old Finnish girl pulled away and beat us by 200 meters.

Does that mean we are getting old?
