Ele’s Race 1

A more detailed post on this will come with the video posting (later) but, figured I’d post the photos that the guys at the race took now

At the start…boys had positioned themselves near the front, so, you can find the blue and the red in the masses in these pictures.

Ran together the whole way….even though we were encouraging them not to (wanted to see how Matthew would do….Matthew wanted to run and talk with Christopher…).  So, as the finishers come in, Suzanne and I are waiting and waiting, wondering what happened to Matthew, and realizing he decided to stick with his big brother…..

Suzanne thinks we should try and photoshop these together to get one picture of the boys…

did a quick attempt at it in powerpoint…..at the end, they sprinted……especially since a girl at Matthew’s class was ahead of them, and they didn’t want to finish behind her (she’s in pink in the background)

Kevin near the start…might be the only part of the race that went well, and this will be the main theme of the video post…..

at the finish…4 minutes slower than he was hoping for…
