While we waited for the grade 4 boys to have their turn at racing we went and played on the playground and had a chilly spring time snack outside...... brrrr!
Max and Christopher both had a 'I am soooooo tiered' look on their faces until they came around the corner and saw the mini cheer team clapping, waving and cheering "go Max/Chris go" "you can do it!" and Sophia's favorite "keep going... your halfway there!" (even though we weren't quite at the half way mark). This seamed to give them a second wind as then they would sprint out of our sight.
