You can do it! Flora resident Adam Ayres (right) offers a helping hand and encouragement as he runs with his son, Jackson, during the Runt Jog held Saturday in Flora. The annual event was sponsored by Flora Lions Club. Kids ran in the race "simply for fun" according to Flora Lions president Susan Shively. Instead of prizes for top finishers, each runner received ice cream and a blue ribbon. "Everyone was a winner," she said. Comet photo by Kevin Schnepp
