Jack is trying a new sport this fall -- cross country! Seventh graders can join the school team, so he and a friend decided to try it. We are so proud of him for trying something new, and something that is super hard.
The week that practice started was so hot. They practiced at 3:30 and temperatures were in the 90s. He didn't complain and worked through his very sore muscles. He's also had to deal with his heel hurting and his hip hurting as his body has gotten used to running (and we also got him some new, good running shoes that helped). I think he's tired of me telling him how proud I am of him.
He's had two meets so far and he's improved his times at each one. We got to go yesterday because it was a home meet and it was fun to see him run!
