Marathon Weekend

Hello All,

I have been practicing for it for quite some time now.




I trained long and hard for this day. My training included some unique stretching exercises.




I also included one-hand push-ups as part of my regimen.



Finally, the D-Day has arrived. I was participating in the first event of my athletic career, the "Silicon Valley Marathon Diaper Dash".





I scoped out the competition, which seemed fierce.





But I had trained hard for this and I was'nt going to get scared. So I came....

I crawled.....





And I conquered!!!! I was crowned the winner of "Silicon Valley Diaper Dash 2008".



I was overwhelmed with a sense of achievement as I celebrated with my family.



Earlier, Daddy finished his marathon too, so we had a double family treat. Check me pumping my fist in happiness.




Did someone ask "How many other kids were in my race?". I am sorry I can't hear you.....


Love
Diya.
