one tuff little guy!

This is one of my very best friends. His name is Dane and he is six years old. Last week Dane completed the last mile of the Orange County Marathon. He had been practicing for months and had completed the required amount of miles needed to compete. He did this mostly after school with his coach as part of a program that they had. Dane even had to make up some extra miles on his own with his mom and dogs Tobby and Maggie. I am very proud of your accomplishment Dane. You had a goal and you stuck with it.

Yeah, I know just how you feel!



and there is nothing like crossing that finish line!

now that is the look of satisfaction!
Tell your sister and mom thanks for sending over the pictures.
you are a rock star, Dane!!!
