Wellsville Mile

  This was the first year that we have experienced the Wellsville Mile.  It is truly an experience. All the 4th and 5th graders from the county run this race.  They are split into 3 heats in 4 categories: 4th grade girls, 4th grade boys, 5th grade girls, 5th grade boys. It is crazy in my opinion.
  This first picture is of the pre-race festivities. Brock was feeling nervous about the race. The weather was pretty cold but the rain held off.

Kassie and Allie and I were seated right by the finish line with Kim and Grant.

 Brock was in the 3rd and fasted heat of boys.

The kids had to run around the block twice to complete the mile. 

Headed for the finish line! His time was 7 minutes and 59 seconds.  He was ranked about 66 of 120 boys.  I didn't see the finish line time because the clock hadn't reset yet. Fortunately Brock was giving a piece of paper with his time on it.
