Hunter joined the cross country team last week and had his first race on Saturday. The team only practices 3 times a week, so with Labor Day last Monday he only had 2 days of practice with the team. He did go out and run around the neighborhood for 20 minutes on day as well. So when Saturday came around he didn't know what to expect.
He ran in the 5th/6th race (1.1 miles) up and down the Kentucky hills! He is on the red team - he's the 2nd red guy from the right. (next to the rather relaxed blue team)
Somewhere, he managed to get a "long distance running" gene - most likely not from the Sandhagens or McGintys! He smkoed everyone on his team (he hasn't been at practice enough to realize there is a team element to cross country) and managed to bring home the 6th place trophy!!! We are super proud of him!!
