On Monday, Emily and Reese had their first cross-country running race. Reese ran in the 800 meter (Kindergarten and First Graders) and placed 20th out of a field of 91. She placed 5th among the girls and 1st for her school. She ran the course in 4 minutes, 27.2 seconds.
Emily ran the mile race (4-6th grades) in 6 minutes, 52.3 seconds- placing 12th out of 126, 2nd among the girls and 1st for her school.
It is remarkable how much improvement Emily has shown since this past spring when she ran the track series. This is Reese's first foray into running club and she is really enjoying it.
There are two more races left in the season and I will post the results of those races as they become available. Maybe I will even remember to bring my camera next time. :P
