Champion

Mack, oldest of The Sweeties, took third overall and third “Sub-Bantam” boys this morning at the USATF Virginia Junior Olympic Cross Country Championships. The distance was 2K.

In other words, third at the state meet.

Mack claims to like the longer distances. He says when he starts hurting he knows every other runner is hurting too.

Next week Mack competes against against qualifiers from D.C., Georgia, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia at the Region III championships. There is no national championship for Sub-Bantam kids (kids born in 2000 or later).
