All three of the oldest kids did cross country this year. Some of their meets ended up on the same nights but I tried to make it to as many as I could. They all improved a lot over the season. The first race for all of them was at the Norris Penrose Event Center. I took both little girls to Bucko and Minnie's race there. They were so funny because they would flip down the seats and one of them had bird pooh on it and every time they would flip it down, they would scream "EWWW!" and run away. They have fun together at least.
Tink had one race in a park where the kids could play. They loved that.
My favorite venue, though, is always the Air Force Academy. It still feels a lot like coming home whenever we are on a base.
Bucko and Minnie's last race was the morning of PC's ultramarathon. It was a beautiful day though. They only run 1.5 miles but both of them shaved off five minutes from their first race! I'm so glad they pushed through and had fun!
