X-Country

These are pictures of Brett's cross country meets. They are so much fun to go to and cheer. We went to one last night and there were 89 teams there!!! Wow. Hope you like the pictures. Yesterday he broke his PR (personal record) for a 5K and now it's 17:27.

The First Track Meet

My first track meet was last Monday. It was so much fun. I ran the 4x100 relay, 1600 meter (one mile), and the medley relay. Here are some pictures from that.
