Yesterday Randy (Bailey) and Isaac came over and we scraped and scraped and scraped the north side of our trim. He is helping me to finally finish the painting of our trim that we started three summers ago (including this one). The end is in sight and we are very grateful for Randy's motivation.
In the afternoon Zoe came to cross country with me. I pushed her in the jogging stroller out toward Highway 39 on the OC&E Bike Path. I noticed that she had been quiet for some time. I assumed that she was engrossed in her book ("My first ABC Book"), but when I checked on her at the turnaround point, I found that she snoozed soundly, head lolling to the right. We ran back and she awoke when I stopped at the school for a drink of water.
While Zoe and I ran and snoozed by ourselves, the cross country kids ran their pre-race warm-up. When we returned, they seemed warm, but it is always hard to tell what they actually did. Maybe we should make them take their heart rate and then we can see where they really are as far as a warm up goes. It is so important to be ready to race when the gun goes off, and not expect to get warm on the course.
Today they are going to the Pre-district Meet at Lake Selmac, hosted by Illinois Valley. Good luck everyone.
