Woolaroc Race

There is a historical ranch and museum outside of town that was owned by Frank Phillips (the founder of Phillips 66) called Woolaroc. Every year they have a race out there that is known for being treacherous and challenging. It's a 5 mile race and the whole thing is uphill. Sam ran in it this year and did a great job. He finished the 5 miles in 41:52. While he was running, the kids and I went to see the goats, zebras, roosters, and other animals they had in the stalls nearby. It was a fun morning for everyone.
Here he is about 1 mile in. Still smiling!

The final hill was straight up to the finish line. Way to go Sam!
