Annual jog-a-thon

Friday was the elementary school's annual jog-a-thon.  It's the biggest fundraiser for our school, raising close to $40,000 last year!  The kids really look forward to it too.

First up were the upper grades, including Sydney.  She ran, and ran...

And then found one of her best buddies to run with:

And chat with :)

She ran 16 laps total, which is 4 miles.  Great job, Syd!  Here she is recovering with some classmates.

Up next, lower grades, including the adorable Kindergartners!  Here's Brooke's class...

Lined up, and ready to go...

Brooke, of course, also found her buddies to run with.

 They are so cute!

Brooke ran 10 laps.  One of her classmates told her that if you run 10 laps you get to splash the principal.  Well, you have to raise $50 to do that, thankfully she made that amount regardless :)
