Caden's XC Season

Caden is a sophmore this year.   I was a little worried how he would like XC without Coelton.  He did really well and jumped right in and got to know a lot of kids on the team and rekindled old friendships from last year.  His good buddy, ward member and neighbor; Josh Eastman is a freshman this year and he decided to join the XC team.  It's been fun for Caden to have him running with him.  They also ran together a bit during the summer months.  His #1 fans were at every meet this year and cheered loudly as he ran by.  We love every bit of it!

Here are Caden's times for this season: 
Aug. 28th: "Run for the Pie"  23:00
Sept. 3 Caldwell Invitational  21:38
Sept. 11  NNU  19:50
Sept. 25  Bob Firman  21:43
Oct. 2  Warrior Classic  21:42
Oct. 7th  Gary Ward  20:59
Oct. 14 Gibb Floyd  20:00
Oct. 22  5A Districts  - 19:51
Best mile time 5:48

All meets are 3.1 miles.  Some courses are hard some are flat.  Caden always gets sick during XC season and this year had stomach flu and a bad cold that flares up his athsma.  He didn't miss a meet, and gutted it out to the bitter end each time.  We're so proud of him and can see that Varsity position in the future!
