PM- ran 5 miles around soccer fields while kids at practice

Today was the middle school championship race for our conference. The boys took second (Miguel won every race all year). The girls won the team event, with 3 girls being All-conference (top 7 places). My 6th grade daughter was first overall for our team and set a PR by over a minute, which was awesome. She ran the 2 miles in 13:19- not sure I could do it that fast anymore. Congrats to her and the rest of the girls! My 8th grader didn't qualify top 7 but ran in the open meet and finished 2nd girl, also setting a PR by 37 seconds in 15:49. Fun to watch all of these kids. 

The head coach's youngest kid will be in high school next year so she won't coach anymore. I figure I'll do it.

10 people at frisbee. Good weather, mid-60's, slight breeze. I had a number of bad throws but uncharacteristically had some great long catches in the end zone, including the game winner on a very contested catch. That was fun. My team won 5-2.
