NVXC Runathon

At the beginning of each season the NV cross country team holds is annual fundraiser - a runathon.  The kids, both boys and girls, commit to run for 60 minutes and they get sponsors to donate a per lap amount or a set amount.  The top group of guys makes it a goal to run 40 laps - yes, forty 400 meter laps in 60 minutes - Wow!

Alex is wearing blue shorts and sunglasses - his hair is very short.  See if you can find him in all the pictures :)

Sonya and Casey went to watch and spent time playing with the camera to help pass the time

Casey got this shot of Sonya's legs walking across the football field

The teams are still running....

The light is changing and time is nearing the end - will they make 40 laps?

All done - Alex ran 37 laps today!

Casey took this picture of Alex's shoes and socks - the boys did some barefoot running to cool down after all those laps.

The teams raised a good amount to help make their seasons more fun - super job kids!
