Final Fun Run

May 1, 2014

Since Kaden will be in middle school next year and Versii will be starting at his new elementary school, this was the boys final "Fun Run" at Prescott.

When we were talking about the Fun Run, the boys each made goals:  

Kaden - 15 laps

Versii - 12 laps

Paxton - "I'm going to run one million!"

 Kaden's starting sprint on a hot sunny morning.

We had a high of 89 that day.

 These two were leading the pack, by several feet ...coming around on the first lap.

Paxton, like most little brother's wanted to follow in his big brother's footsteps.  Here he's waiting for Kaden to have his lap marked off and then he took off running after him.  --Kaden said he had no idea Paxton was even behind him.  He raced around the track twice...completing half a mile! 

 Kaden coming in from his final lap.

He ran a total of 14 laps!  That's 3.5 miles!

 Enjoying a drink of water with his friend Nate.

Versii stretching with his class before their run.

 Paxton had grown a little bored by the time Versii arrived on the track.

 Versii took a quick running break to give Paxton a noogie.

 Marking off his final lap.

 Versii ran 10 laps!  That's 2.5 miles!

 At the assembly on May 7th, Kaden won the award for Top Runner in the Entire School: 14 Laps!  And Versii won Top Boy Runner for 1st Grade: 10 Laps!  So proud of my boys!  They each received a special golden foot charm for their necklaces and a $5 certificate for the book fair.

Prescott's Top Runners!
