Cross Country Race

Sept. 24, we went to Oak Park to take a walk. We noticed that there were millions (almost) of kids there. There is apparently a cross country race there every Monday for five weeks. Any kids, even pre-k, can run it. Wow! How did I not know that? Anyway, Adora was really disappointed that she didn't get to run that week, so she actually jumped in mid-way with the elementary school kids. We went to the next race on the 1st, and she competed with the pre-school kids. She got 13th for the girls with a time of 8:36.98 on a half mile. She raced again this past Monday and was much, much faster (Jake was around this time, so he and Salem chased her). I will find out her time in the next couple of weeks. That was the last race. Just in time, too. It started snowing yesterday.
