Today we participated in the Logos Jog-a-thon. The 300+ kids at Logos ran a course, different based upon age group, to try and raise money for the school. It was an amazing time to meet people and connect with kids. Carolyn spent a lot of the time taking pictures for the event and scooping ice cream, I ran with all of the students, Alex, Abby and Calli ran and Cameron just got to play around. The course for the middle/high school went outside of the school's walls and weaved throughout some very poor areas. It was enjoyable to run by families with kids as they paused to watch all of the students run by. I greeted many of them in their indigenous tongue which always makes them smile. Overall the event was a success. It raised much needed funds for the playground and many other important items. The playground at Logos has a lot of fun equipment but the surface under the play equipment is concrete so the added funds will be very welcome.
