This week Emmie participated in her first ever cross country track meet. For the very reasonable entry fee of $3, Emmie, and about a zillion other third, fourth and fifth grade girls, ran the mile at a track meet. She was very proud of her time, 10:04, which beat her personal best by 33 seconds. She placed 87th, which she was very proud of because, in her words, "There were lots of girls at least a quarter of a mile behind her." Well, maybe not quite that far, but she did really well. It was fun to cheer her on and see her work hard to finish strong.
