Cross Country Running

For the first time since I've been working here (18 years), we have a cross country running team. At the beginning of the year, we were invited by the only other elementary team on the coast for a meet. Sedona did her first race and came 2nd in her age category. Now Aja has also joined the team and will join us for a meet or two in the spring. Every Wednesday morning, Chris and I (now that we are teaching at the same school) take a group of kids out for a 3-4 km run. It's humbling, because even though we are runners, some of these kids are FAST, and I can't even keep up to the top runners!
