Nina had her mini marathon at school today.
They had to run the laps of the field and Nina was 13th (out of the 18 first grader girls) .
It was very cold but they all did well. I was very proud of one wee friend of Nina's called Chika. She's not a runner and always last but she insisted on running the whole course even when the others had already finished and were waiting. The school principal ran with her and when he tried to get her to finish early she refused and did the whole lot. Hats off to her.
That's Nina with her friend Anna and Setuska.
