Wellsville Mile '11

The 31st annual Wellsville Mile was held on May 17th, with 9 Elementary schools competing.
All 4th and 5th grade boy and girls divided into 3 different speed levels compete.
Hayden and Shyla were waiting for their turn to run.
Payton and Hayden were in the 5th Grade girls 2nd heat.
It was a cold day, but at least it wasn't raining this year.
Hayden's goal was to beat her best time of 8:30. They have been training for the last couple months to be ready and in shape for this day.
Here is Payton coming around the turn.
Here is Hayden making it around the corner.
Hayden sprinting to the finish line. Her time was 8:23 and she came in 11th place. She did such a great job. You wouldn't believe how fast these kids ran, the winners were in the 6 minutes range.
