Kelden convinced Julia to join their school's cross-country team. So, of course, we had to buy her the jacket. Then, we realised we had to buy the T-shirt for Kelden and the bib for Julia + pay for all the races...A good thing the season is short :) They have been practicing since they started school. Some have spotted them here and there!
Zack also joined his school's team (and all for free!) Yesterday was the first race. It was in Timmins and Zack's sports teacher asked me to join them (as I am in his class for the time being.) Unfortunately, we couldn't stay for Julia's and Kelden's races but Keld and Aunt Ashley were there! Evan was there for Zack too.
Zack finished 21st out of 59 grade 6 boys. He ran 1660 meters in 8 minutes and 22 seconds. He was the second boy of his school.
Kelden was 12 out of 15. He ran 4 kms in 19 minutes and 10 seconds.
Julia was 12 out of 17 and ran 6 kms in 34 minutes and 22 seconds. Her team (they count the first four of each school to make a team and she was 4th for her school) won second place.
Despite what you can see in this last picture, it was not a day to go swimming in the lake. It was cold enough that it actually snowed.
