Week 7: Winning with Toughness

What an amazing weekend for the Delta Hawks!  We saw so many stellar races out of our Athletes!  I told you on Thursday that Toughness wins races.  Well, toughness showed up and we saw our girls team bring home a victory, and our boys team finish in second.  Both teams ran against Junior High School athletes and made an amazing showing.  You are being noticed by other teams and you all should be proud.  Here are some stand out performances that I think we should recognize.

Adeleine: Taking first place in the race - her first race win for the Hawks which led to a team win.

Natalie: Second place on our team, and 5th overall.  What a huge jump in team standings!

Our Top 5 girls were all within the Top 20 of the race and earned medals.

Elias: Held on to First place in the boys race with second place almost beating him out.

Callan: I was super proud of Callan for leaning into his fear at the start of the race and running a tough race.  He conquered his fear and had a very strong finish!

Dylan: Shout out to Dylan for showing up to the race to support his teammates even though he couldn’t run.  That kind of leadership is huge!

Our Top 5 Boys were all within the Top 20 of the race and earned medals.

For all of you, I can see that the training is starting to really pay off.
