30th Annual Jog-A-Thon..."I Survived the Jog"

Every year the kids at F.C.S. mail out sponsor forms & participate in a jog-a-thon to raise money for the school. Each class at the elementary campus run/jog/walk the 232 meter track for 30 minutes. Mr. Hannold always leads the kiddies for the 1st 1/2 lap. (x4 by the end of the morning) This year the lion mascots came out to Cheer on the kids...a great source of encouragement on such a brisk and VERY windy morning!

Keagan still smiling in spite of his uncontrollable shivers.

Bethany always enjoys watching the kids but has never had to be bundled. She did run 1/2 a lap with Hailey which warmed her up but Grandma Marilyn did most of the warming.

Keagan kept a steady pace of running 1/2 a lap...walking 1/2 a lap. He completed 16 laps!

Way to go, son.

Hailey jogged with friend Chloey, mom Amanda, and I. She was a trooper in spite of the wind. The jog has always been a highlight of the year for Hailey.

Elise Benedict, Chloey Bell, & Hailey have been the top female joggers of their class since Kindergarten. Every year 2 out of these 3 girls tie for first place and 1 girl is a lap behind. This year Hailey completed 18 laps and was 10 ft. away for receiving her 19th lap free when the horn sounded. Elise and Chloey tied with 19 laps. These 3 girls are the best of friends. We are so proud of all 3!
