My grand-daughter, Emily ran with the Varisty team today at their district meet. She is a sophomore, but she came in second place for her team! To top it off, she ran most of the race with only one shoe!!! It was so rainy and muddy that it had gotten stuck in the mud and she just kept on running. Here is a photo of her after the race when she had been handed her shoe by her Dad who had gone to fetch it for her. Can you believe how muddy they got?
Thanks for getting my rainbow on PP yesterday!!!
Second place varsity cc with one shoe is an incredble achievement - my son was varsity cc in high school and those kids fly through the woods. Good for Emily!
Now that is one dedicated runner! Good for her- I'm glad she made an excellent showing- maybe if she had both shoes on she'd have come in first place! hehehe
