Well, they did it. Despite light to pouring rain, and a stiff, cool wind off Lake Michigan, both of our Bobcat Cross Country teams took first place in the National Lutheran School Cross Country Championships this past weekend in Wisconsin.

What a great couple of weekends. During the girls race, the light drizzle turned into a heavy downpour for about 5 minutes. Despite it all, all of the runners finshed. Maggie had a great time, said she really liked running in the rain!.
Sue, Maggie is usually near the back, if not at the back as well. Her times improve each week and that is all that matters at this point. She's finally understanding the "team" concept. They had a big celebration at school this afternoon. She was loving it. And it's funny to see how she treats her new "hardware", with kid gloves, which is very unlike her.
