Nathan had his first high school cross country race as a freshman. It was so exciting! It was the Hanford Jamboree at Leslie Groves Park so it was a home meet. Since it was a Jamboree, it was only a 2 mile race. He finished in 12:50. He kept a very steady pace for both miles. It was in the high 90's as well. They had to postpone the race from 5 pm to 7 pm due to the heat. He finished running before the sun set though! There were a lot of teams there. Kamiakin, Southridge, Pasco, Chiawana, Pendleton, Hermiston, Tri Cities Prep, Zillah, Prosser, Moses Lake. Overall, there were 161 boys who ran and Nathan placed 64th.

I think it's funny how Nathan is so clear in this picture. It's like my camera knew to focus on him and not the other boys! This was his first lap around.
Continuing his first lap around. Hanford was the only team with all white shirts so that is how I knew where to look.
Second lap around.
Coming down the home stretch to the finish line!

After the race. Very tired!
His biggest fan came to watch!
Jeremy got there JUST in time. He pulled in just as they were starting the race so he didn't miss it.
