Today, Camden had 'Run Wild' Day at his school, which is a yearly fund raiser. One thing you may not know about Camden, since we have just really noticed it this year, is that he is extremely competitive when it comes to running. During PE on Tuesdays and Thursdays, it is run day where they run laps for 25 minutes, accumulating popsicle sticks with each lap they run. Generally Camden gets 9 popsicle sticks and seems to get more laps than his other classmates. He loves run days and is always looking forward to them.
Today, with Shane watching on, Camden made 13 laps in 25 minutes. One lap was 0.2 miles. So basically he ran 2 3/5 miles in 25 minutes. The coaches thought the top 4th grader ran 14 laps. Holy cow! Let me just say he was very proud of his accomplishment - rightfully so. I was so sad I was not there to watch him and cheer him on.
