Katelyn's Championship Cross Country Race!

It was a beautiful morning and Katelyn was so ready for this race!  She ran well and ended up coming in 4th place (out of 98 runners)!  We are proud of this girl and all of her hard work this season.  She loves running and has enjoyed it so much, which is always nice-- to enjoy what you do!  Glendale Prep girls also took 2nd place overall-- runner's up to North Phoenix Prep.  (They had the 1 and 2 runners!)  It was a fun morning and enjoyable to watch the awards ceremony!

Before the race...

I love this course!  It's so spectator friendly as you can easily see them
