CF? Pffft….Got nothing on this kid.

[flickr id=”6083043811″ thumbnail=”medium” overlay=”true” size=”small” group=”” align=”left”] I knew he’d do me proud.

That was never in question.

But right out of the gate.

First meet of the season.

He blew me (and everyone that knew him) away.

He paced himself well.

Drafting behind another kid.

Then at the end hauled ass like you wouldn’t believe (see picture).

Pulling in 6th place overall.

4th on his team.

A final time (in the 1.9 mile race)…

Of 12 minutes, 12 seconds!!!!!

That is an entire minute than his best ever time.

His best placing ever.

The kid is a rocket.

And ready to roll the rest of the season.

He made me proud.

Okay, he made me cry – but I didn’t embarrass him by blubbering all over him.

Best.Race.Ever. ย Until next week ๐Ÿ˜€

*******

P.S. Can I tell you how hard it is to photograph when you’re screaming your heart out for your kid?
