"I will NOT quit this race."

You know you're back in college [whilst raising a family and tending ALL other responsibilities of an adult] when:
Washing dishes and washing car = break time.  :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Calista's hui [class at school] trained (since the beginning of the school year) and completed (this past weekend) a 5K as one of their class-wide projects.  What a neat way to give back to the community, be physically active, and grow closer as a hui.

In true Campbell fashion, the rest of us decided we were gonna do the race with her, the night before.  It was Kawena's idea.  Seriously.  :)

Run For Hope was at Four Seasons Hualalai, the course weaved through the ridiculously gorgeous *and expensive* real-estate within that property, beside the golf course, and parallel to the ocean.  Calista took off running, as did Terry, while Kawena and I decided we would walk the course together, "I will NOT quit this race Mom, I will NEVER give up!"...and off we went.  3.2 miles & approximately 1 hour later, we crossed the finish line in perfect sprinting form, as if we'd ran the whole course.  :)  Calista finished about 15 minutes earlier, joined in smiles and celebration with her classmates. 

The 'light' breakfast afterwards consisted of all you can eat buffet style:
yogurt, fruits, pastries, sausage, eggs, & rice
Ummm...yeah, we're from Hawai'i.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Love & hugs,
Mrs. C
