sometimes she’s so blonde

My oldest daughter is very bright. Honors classes, good grades etc etc. Sometimes though… sometimes she reminds us that she’s the only blonde in the family. Friday night K was looking at the course map for our Saturday morning 5K. On the map there was some race information including this line: No strollers or joggers allowed. She read the line and here’s the conversation that followed.

K: But how can they tell?
Me: How can they tell what?
K: How can they tell who is jogging and who is running? And what’s the difference between strolling and walking?
[insert two second pause before our laughter burst out]

We decided that the next time you’re racing, if you need a walk break it’s okay. But whatever you do, DON’T STROLL.
