Indoor Track

Jac and Thomas have had a great time running indoors lately...
Their first meet (yes, Thomas is running with the high school boys!) was at BYU
they ran the MILE
Jac  got a PR with 5:29.7
Thomas got a PR of 5:29.1
Yes, Thomas was pretty excited to beat his big sis by .6 of a second :)
Here are photos of the Kearns meet
Jac ran the mile in 5:19!! another PR! 
The 2 mile was the last event and Jac was STRONG! She came in 3rd with an 11:39! 
Yep, another PR :)

Thomas had a goal of getting under a 5:20 mile. (hmm... did he want to beat his sister?)
He "barely" PR'd with a 5:11!
 He shocked EVERYONE by beating his best time by 19 seconds!
Thomas ran the 800 in 2:20....both his times are records for the junior high boys at Lehi!

It's been fun having both kids run in the same meets. Thomas LOVES the challenge of running with the "big" boys...no one knows he isn't one of them since he LOOKS just like them! He has amazing determination and doesn't let anything get in his way of reaching his goals.
Jac has been an amazing example and mentor for him!

Some people ask, "Is Jac happy that her little bro ran faster than her?" 
She is one of his BIGGEST CHEERLEADERS! Anyway, boys are SUPPOSED to be faster so it's OK. So in reality, in "girl standards" she's still faster :) hee hee
