Thought of the day

Proud poppa moment.
Kyle's cross-country team had their awards banquet last night and he earned a varsity letter as a freshman. 
He started practicing in June so, if I had to guess, I think that he has run about 15,000 miles.
Kyle has improved a lot over the season and I'm excited to watch him over the next few years.
He ran 24:53.4 in his first race and set a PR of 21:07.7 at a recent meet. 
He has his last race this weekend, and then he is going to take a little break before he starts his off-season training in January.
Congrats on a great first season, Kyle.

Happy Wednesday! 
Hope you are doing good and thanks for stopping by!

I will persevere.
I will keep moving forward.
I will be the stream.

  5. A varsity letter freshman year is an accomplishment! Go Kyle!

    That’s a mean brother; I can’t tell the difference. Doritos for me always equaled bad breath and mouth sores.

  10. Yay Kyle!
    I'm always in awe of people who can do sports. I don't have the coordination nor the body for sports.
    And I cackled with the refried beans ice cream! Oh, that's DEVIOUS.
    LOL

    XOXO

  12. Lettering as a freshmen, good job. He can check that off his list.

  13. Yeah Kyle that is so darn good!! Varsity letter in freshman year is quite the accomplishment. You should both be proud. The ice cream is something my husband would do to a sibling.

  14. Congrats to Kyle, even though running is just putting one foot in front of the other, it's far more difficult than many can even understand.

  15. I'm going to have to study up with geography because I would have guessed cross country season to be long over in Idaho. I know our state meet was three weeks ago. My daughter's last cross country race was over a month ago!

    1. Hey Ed! He finished up all of the sanctioned high school cross country races around mid-October. This was an invitational put on Nike that allowed him train for a few more weeks. The kid loves to run.
