I ran a marathon!

Hi Everybody! Sorry it's been so long! I've been very busy starting kindergarten, meeting new friends, and playing in my OWN room! This will be kind of a long post to make up for my absence!

Today I want to tell you about my latest acheivement. I ran a marathon! Here in Richland, there is a running club called the 3 Rivers Road Runners. They sponsored a race for little kids. We were to run 25 miles in the months of September and October. We ran the last 1.2 miles of our marathon together in a fun run.



This is Michael and I showing mom our huge muscles.



This is me warming up. It was really cold!



I ran with all these friends!


This is where mom was waiting for me to cross the finish line!



I finished and ran the entire time! I got this cool medal too! My time was 14:15.


This is me cheering on the other runners. They all did such a great job!



I really, REALLY like my new medal!


This is what my brother did while I was running. He really likes sticks and dirt.


Mom: What did you think about your race?
Chelse: I just wanted to get a medal.
Mom: Do you want to do it again?
Chelse: Yeah
Mom: What did you think about running every day?
Chelse: I didn't really want to run to my school the days we had to run to my school.
mom: Why?
Chelse: Cause. It was a long run. REALLy long. 2 miles!!! (sigh!) and Daddy wouldn't let me take any rests!


Oh. Mom says I have to go private. So, leave your e-mail okay? Then you can see more of what I'm up too!

Chelsea's dream

I had a really cool dream at grandma's house.
M: Which Grandma?
C: The grandma that has Melissa

It kinda looked like a clasrooom. All the classes were like playgrounds. It was really cool. I was at Grandma's church and I really found my friends.

M: What friends?
C: All of my friends from my party. Not my cousins, but my friends from the old house. NOt for real, but like when I go to sleep I can see really cool things like a kitchen. When I fall right to sleep I see something.
