You were so awesome! It was great to see you race! I'm curious to know how much cash you made!

Oops! I hate it when the wrong name gets in on a comment. That one up there wasn't from yourself, it was from me.

Great job Benjamin! You looked very strong coming into the finish line! I'll bet your dad owes you some big bucks from this race!

Benjamin,

You ran a great race! I wasn't there but I read about it in your report and also you dad's. You are a very good runner and I'm pretty sure you will get better and better. Your sister ran very well in the race too, don't you think?

Wow Benjamin, fabulous time! I can't believe how fast you can run such a long race like that. Every time I check on you, you've improved. Congratulations on your 1st place!

Also, is it your birthday? Happy Birthday big guy!
