Eli's Cross Country Meet







Eli had his first "official" cross country meet in Addis. The entire ICS high, middle and elementary team competed with 4 or 5 other schools. ICS finished 1st place in the team division.

Eli placed 4th place with a time of 3:51 for 1k in the elementary division consisting of 4th and 5th graders. Eli is in 4th grade. He improved his time by 14 seconds from two weeks ago at the fun run. He almost passed the boys in 2nd and 3rd place......they were only 1 second apart. Sooooo close!

We are so proud of him. He really did enjoy his first year of cross country and I enjoyed being a parent volunteer coach. :-)

P.S. Did you see his Boise State hat on? Go Broncos!

That is awesome! And at that elevation, with local competition! Pretty amazing. No doubt he has his mom and dad's runner genes. xoxo
