Who's Grandma rocks? Connor's...well at least she does the Electric Slide, and not afraid to do it in front of about 300 other people on a grassy knoll behind Freewill Elementary. I think Pop-Pop was ready to run and hide in the woods! Connor loved showing them his school. He didn't miss a room or anything in it! Especially the library and Cuddles the rabbit!
Colin lucked out and had BOTH sets of grandparents show up for the Wildcat Invite at Marcus Whitman near Canandaigua. They were not disappointed. His whole team was just awesome! Pierce Morgan (a senior on Colin's team) paced he and Yanko through most of the race. He is such a calming force out there, making sure they are on the mark and their heads are in the game. Then Colin was able to be lucky enough to outrun the really nice Dinan kid from Geneva who schooled him a few weeks back at their first home meet. He ended up winning his race with a time of 17:39 for 5000m. It was a great race. Even more wonderful was to see how his team mates support each other and run hard straight to the end. The older kids on his team are wonderful role models, are extremely patient and very positive to be around.
It was a great weekend and we are so grateful to his grandparents for driving so far to cheer him on!
