Cross country runners & future olympic stars

We went to watch cousin Trent from Granite Bay in a Stanford high school cross country invitational Sept 25th. Wow, can that guy run fast. Last year as a freshman he came in 44nd place out of a couple hundred and this year he beat his time by 2 min. and came in 14th place out of 214 with a time of 16:13 (pace 5:13/mile). Josephine and I went to breakfast with Craig and Julie before the meet. It was very fun to spend time with them and watch all the runners. It turns out the night before I missed seeing some other fast runners. Rachel and Caleb participated in the Palo Alto Moonlight Run. They didn't train much at all and Rachel (17)  got 8th place in her age group for the 5k and Caleb (10) came in 4th in his age group for the 10k which was top 17% out of 1000+ runners. Congrats to all these young runners. It  must be fun to be so fast.
