Cross Country Season

Having never been a cross country runner myself, I am continually amazed that all 3 of our kids manage to perform very well in this sport.

This year has been no different.

Last term, Lauren's syndicate at school had their cross country, and Lauren placed a very impressive 2nd place in the year 4 girls race. A great effort.

Earlier this term, Kyla and Braden's syndicates had their cross country races. Braden placed 2nd in his, and Kyla 3rd in hers. We were very impressed!

Last Monday saw the Kaipara Schools Cross Country being held at Woodhill Sands. This is an event which has about 8 schools participating. Both Kyla and Braden went to this, and did well there too. Braden placed 5th, and Kyla 4th.

Thursday last week was the Norwest Cross Country, involving schools from Kaukapaka down to Swanson and Massey - around 22 schools this time.

Braden placed 11th in his race, and Kyla an impressive 2nd place!!!

We were very proud of them both,
and look forward to seeing how Kyla does at the Auckland Champs on 2nd September.
