I kill to have a 17 (or even a sub 20 minute mark) but that happens when you get older (and lazy). Still, pretty darned good achievement. And I wouldn't sweat not making the meet. I am sure Wolfgang knew you were there in spirit. agg79https://www.blogger.com/profile/08925069219602681862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-91855575713883816602012-10-03T19:33:40.520-06:002012-10-03T19:33:40.520-06:00Awww... how sweet of Wolfgang to not break the 17 ...Awww... how sweet of Wolfgang to not break the 17 minute mark yet! I bet if you drive him all the way across Kansas to my neck of the woods, he'd easily break it! Flatter lands and like Guano said, more air. Just a thought. :)<br />I think the pics depict how fast Wolfgang is running....<br /> ShadowRun300https://www.blogger.com/profile/12135867148518005153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-17500344268423069142012-10-03T18:41:38.671-06:002012-10-03T18:41:38.671-06:00His iPhone does take nice crisp photos.

Our top 7 make varsity, everyone else runs JV. Some of them are animals - at 17:02, Wolfgang is 5th on the depth chart.

I think it's inevitable, especially for those of us with full time employment and multiple kids who are close in age. And I think you're right. We feel worse than the kids do.<br /><br />Nice that Magnum managed to get some shots on his iPhone. Whenever I attempt an action shot with mine, it comes out blurred and grainy. So in my opinion, he did good!terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510457113017189354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-75310701817524614712012-10-03T18:28:40.217-06:002012-10-03T18:28:40.217-06:00Yes, the "purposeful" cropping makes for...Yes, the "purposeful" cropping makes for an added dramatic effect.Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05853360875281742784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-53201152951673123312012-10-03T18:20:20.918-06:002012-10-03T18:20:20.918-06:00We have a X-country runner, too.

Good thing about cross country is that nobody gets cut; everybody makes the team. <br />Not nearly as much hacking and spitting at the end here -- maybe because, unlike Mile High, there's actually, you know, AIR!
