Katry recently participated in her district wide 6th grade field day. They did trial runs at their individual schools to try out for the different events. Katry took first place in the 50, 75, 100, 200, 400 and 1600meter races. Yah- she is pretty fast and has a lot of endurance too. She is pretty competetive and you can see that she runs with her heart. She wins because of desire. Its really fun to watch.
For the district wide field day- you can only compete in a few events. Katry did the mile run, the 400 relay, the running long jump and the 75 meter sprint. She ran her heart out on the 75 meter sprint- but she was a full foot shorter than the winner and she just couldn't make up the distance with her short little legs. It was a very close finish. She did however, beat the same girl in the mile run- where her endurance won out. I love to watch Katry compete. She is awesome!

Katry bird you remind me so much of Lindsey and I (Kaleb), you know we were the field day winners at our school too! It must run in the Thompson blood, nice genes:) We wish we could be there to watch.
