5th grade track meet

last wednesday was the annual 5th grade track meet.
the schools do a good job of making it fair for everyone.
they set them up in heats of four,
with their fastest runners going first,
then on down from there... so everyone has a chance to compete,
and has a chance to race against people who are of like speed.

the kids get so excited about this,
and it is always a highlight of the year.
