Cross Country


Both Joel and Rachel are running cross country this year. They are both doing really well and enjoying the season. It has been good for them to train together and have the "friendly" competition of seeing who gets the best time. Cross Country is a huge event here with hundreds of children running in each race. A strong finish from Rachel.







This is the girls middle school team. Just three of them. They are all good runners and usually come in the top 50. This day they all won a medal.

We told Joel off for this photo. We told him he should be trying too hard to have time to look around and spy us out. He has been running harder and won a medal for 20th place at their last race. Rachel came 7th in her race.



This photo in some way shows the crowd we encounter at these races.
