sprints and skills courses

We went for a bike (Liesl and I) and run (Seb and Jasper) last week on the Rock Creek and Waterline trails, in Beaverton. We explored a new trail, which led to a new playground (sadly closed), and climbed some trees. The other three stopped there while I rode back to get the car in order to go pick them up. (We'd gone about 4 miles, so Seb was done.)
Liesl and Steve had a session of sprints on the field.
We made another street skills course, with the ladder (icky-shuffle), soccer ball dribbling (including a maradona), rope-jumping, hula hooping, stilts-walking, dance jumps, cartwheels, grapevine sideways shuffles, holding a plank, 10 squats, high knee skips, throwing a baseball at a target, and throwing a frisbee at a cone. Phew!

And finally, into any active life, a little trouble must fall. Liesl crashed on her bike and fell onto her face and hands, giving herself some scrapes and cuts and a big fat lip. Poor baby. She recovered!
