We're proud of our newest Runner.

Oli's spring sport was Track and Field through the Kirkland Boys and Girls Club. We were so proud of his effort and his perseverance.  

The races he liked best were the mile, 800 meter, 400 meter and the 100 meter.  He also tried long jump and softball throw but he tended to choose the running races in the latest track meets.  

His fastest mile was 7:20!

We have plans to run (and more importantly train) for a 5k this summer and see how well he can do.



Grit.


Lean in.

J doing her own race, racing Oli's little brother, Luke.  Julia is winning and proud of it. When she tries hard, she sticks out her tongue.  Love that.




Oli is one of those runners that makes some great faces when trying so hard. 

"Go Ahhhyeee" (aka Oli)
A photo taken by Julia who couldn't quite hold up the heavy camera let alone focus. But a picture of Oli and after Beat the  Bridge a month ago.  That 5 mile race was the longest race Oli had ever run.  We ran as part of Prime 8's team (the company I work for).  Oli wears that running shirt at least 2x a week still.
