Cross Country Run

Today was the Chinook Edge cross country run in Innisfail,so we headed up.  It was a very cold day.  When we got up to the race it was still -2 and there was a lot of frost all over the ground.  When the sun came up it started to get nicer and warm up.  I am not sure why they don't do it a week earlier when it was hot out.

 Jayden waiting for the race to end.  We had a super busy morning and he spent it running to keep up with me and then we had to do the walk through of the race, so we walked with Elyssa. So we ended up walking 1.5km most of it uphill and they did it at a fairly quick pace.

There is a happy boy.

 Keisha did her 1km and finished 8th out of 40

 This is the second year that Elyssa has run it and she gets very grumpy before a race. 

 Some of the girls in Elyssa's class.  That is her teacher behind her.  She ran the race with the girls.

 Still grumpy

 And they were off.
