There are some sports that require you to fight against yourself . Cross country is just such a sport. Benjamin joined the Amelia Barons Middle school team this fall without having ANY experience in distance running. He has pushed himself and has learned even more self discipline. This morning Benjamin ran two miles in 12:02! This is his best time and the school record time for this event! He placed 14th over all and beet his own personal best time by over two minutes! This is amazing since just prior to the meet he was complaining about his stomach hurting and his back hurting... then he goes out and has this kind of result. Imagine what he could do completely healthy. Way to go Ben there just isn't much you cannot do in sports! We are so proud of your hard work.
