First cross country meet

Trey had his very first cross country meet today. Bright and early and a beautiful morning! He has been training hard at practice and was excited for today! The 6th and 7th graders ran 1 mile, the 8th graders 2 miles. His finishing time for his mile was 6:29! He was in the top 13-20 but i couldn't concentrate to count because i was trying to make sure i got a picture of him and that big round ball of fire in the sky was so bright i couldn't hardly see anything!

before the run...pretty chilly morning

heading to get course instructions

all the 6th grade teams lined up

and they are off!

that big ball of fire in the sky made for a not so hot picture but i'm just glad he is actually in the picture i couldn't even see to tell if he was, i just snapped...he is the middle guy if you can't tell
