AM Elliptical and run. Left knee is sensitive, I will try to wear my patella strap for a while. Will do strength/core class at lunch. This afternoon is cross country conference championship race. Both boys and girls teams have won every meet this year so I hope that continues. Also found out they will award All-Conference team to only the top 6 runners overall, not the top 7 as in past years. There should be some great competition so hopefully my runners really step up and run well- there's no feeling quite like pushing yourself and doing better than you thought possible.

Cross country update- both boys and girls team completed perfect seasons, winning the conference championship after winning ever prior race. Boys took 4 of the 6 All-conference slots (our 4th runner finished .02 seconds ahead of 7th place) and girls took 3 of 6 slots. My daughter earned All-Conference honors all 3 years of her middle school career, the only one to do so. It was a good season and I'll miss these kids.

9 people at frisbee on a beautiful day. All 9 played, my team had 4. We were down 2-3 but scored 3 straight to win. On game 2, no one scored for 5 min, then the other team won 3-0.
