Joshua competed in the TAPPS State Cross Country Meet this weekend. It was his first state cross country meet and he was a freshman competing against a lot of juniors and seniors. There were 97 participants in his group. He started to get nervous with the number of boys there so Jeremy told him to just run his best and not push himself to hard where he would get hurt. (He had his last 2 performances of TKMB to do still!) He did just that! He came in 84th out of the group with his second best time of the season.
I was very proud of him and how he ran. Especially after seeing the finish...
Joshua sprinted the last 100 yards, at least!, and they other kid just couldn't stay with him. Joshua beat him out in the end by sheer determination. Way to go, Boss!!
Good run! Great to see our kids to well in athletics. I've been posting pics this fall of our daughter in high school golf. Last year!
