Yesterday Linnea participated in the age-old Portland Public Schools fundraiser Run for the Arts. To give you and idea how old it is, I remember running around the track at Alameda to raise money for it when I was a kid! Anyway, Linnea and all the other kids in Ms. Miller's kindergarten class walked from Hollyrood to the Grant track and then ran (and walked and ran and walked) for the next half hour.
By the time all was said and done, Linnea ran 9 laps. I found out this morning that each lap is 1/4 mile, which means that Linnea ran 2 1/4 miles yesterday! Must be Kevin's cross country genes. That certainly didn't come from me! No wonder she was tired!
