Run with kids Please, could you help me to correct it and make it sound natural? Any suggestion is appreciated! This was a sweet, lovely and full-of-story cross-country run. I thought that the weather and the route would be a problem for the children, but actually facing difficulties, they were more brave and determined than their parents. The adults haven’t realised how powerful their children were until they attended the game together. Some parents who have done running training unexpectedly found that they held their kids back in the competition. The event provided a great opportunity for parents to take their children to get close to nature and create unforgettable memories. Those who have run a lot of games but never won any prize surprisingly gained one by the strength of their children. Grace, the youngest player from the 8k group, has known that “The most important thing is not to win but to participate.” Grace’s dad said, “Keeping the competitions for children at a moderate level is good enough. For them, spending quality time with parents and learning some invaluable concepts from the games are more desirable.”
