Cross Country


The 2009 Cross Country season is well under way. This is Mikenzie's 3rd year running and she loves it! She has already run in 4 meets so far. She has finished number 2 on her team each time. Her goal is to be #1 on her team before the end of the season. She is a tough cookie, trying to be the first girl finished each practice and running hills the other girls wouldn't dream of. She is a great example for Gage. He and 2 friends decided to run with the high school team. They are all in 8th grade, but the high school coach lets them practice with the team. There are only a couple of races for 8th graders during the season so the boys are just practicing for the future. Gage ran in a fun run after one of Kenzie's meets and beat both his teammates. We have high hopes for him and Mikenzie in being they best they can be!

Wow. Look at those skinny, white boys! That is what mine look like too. You are the running family. I don't know how you do it! That is great the kids love it too.

So awesome that even the kids are involved in running. How do they do it in the middle of the afternoon though in your heat??? Yikes! See you in 2 weeks! :)
