1st Middle School Meet of the Season

Eli, Camden, & Isaac had their first cross country meet of the season today. (I don’t know how Michael & I ended up with all of these little runners!)  The boys enjoyed the meet today. Eli came in 33rd in his race against the 8th grade boys. And Camden tripped in his run, but he still finished the race and came in 72nd out of the 6th grade boys. And Isaac ran in the same race as Camden (the 5th graders from our school get to participate in cross country too and they just run in the 6th grader races). And Isaac came in 26th!  The thing I like about the middle school meets is that they boys try their best and work hard, but there’s no pressure and they just have fun with it.  (And Courtland, who’s in 4th grade this year, is impatiently awaiting his turn to join the cross country team too like all 4 of his big brothers).
