When you have a three-year-old, family bonding can get a little silly. On February 3, CrossFit Games athlete Emily Loogman experienced this first-hand during a relay race with her daughter Payton.
An adorable video posted on Loogman’s Instagram and TikTok shows Payton screeching and making a run for it as her mom approaches to hand off the baton. As Loogman wrote in an Instagram post after the event, the two are “gonna have to work on that baton hand off.” Even so, Loogman commented, “I think it’s safe to say she’s gonna be faster than I ever was.”
The relay race was part of a Point Loma Nazarene University alumni track meet in San Diego, California. Loogman, formerly part of the university’s track and field team, attended the meet with her daughter and husband. Watch the adorable scene unfold in the video below.
