Welcome Back To My Blog!

I'm starting the 6th grade and I'm starting up my blog again after my summer break. On summer break we did a lot of boating and surfing. I'm going to track my miles starting from this Saturday when we hiked 8 miles. I will update my blog each week and let you know the total miles and donations. I will do the bridge run again in the Spring this year with my family! Thank you for following my blog. 

First Hiking Club Hike!

I have joined a school hiking club with my brother and a group of other people in my school and our leader is my teacher Mr. Zak. On Saturday, we went to Wannamaker Park north trail in North Charleston and we hiked 8 miles! It was great and I had a lot of fun. My Dad came too.

my neighborhood

This is one of many neighborhood runs that I do periodically. It's hard to run in the summer when it's really hot. My favorite place to run is on the beach but sometimes there is not enough time in the day to go out there.

Botany Bay Beach hike

My family and I went to Botany Bay for the day and that is near Edisto, SC. On this hike, we saw many shells but we were not allowed to pick any up to keep. It was cloudy that day and we thought it was going to rain but the rain held out and we were able to finish our hike.

Atlanta July 4th 10k

On July 4th, 2015 Atlanta hosted their annual Peachtree Road Race 10k and my whole family participated with friends. This run was very tricky because it rained really hard the whole way (6.2 miles!) and it was very hilly. This was my favorite run I have ever done though because I just enjoyed it!

A Walk For The Victims Of The Charleston Shooting

A few days after the June 17, 2015 shooting of nine people at the Emanuel Church in downtown Charleston the whole city gathered at the foot of the Cooper River Bridge. We walked 2.5 miles to the top of the bridge and back in support of the families of the victims. It was a very sad and meaningful experience. I hope nothing like this will never ever happen again.
