Tennis Shoes


Tennis Shoes

Max started tennis lessons today and loved it. It was pretty early this morning (for him in the summer!) but he set his alarm and jumped right out of bed. He was excited to get there on time. He took the beginner class but his instructor told him that tomorrow she is moving him to the intermediate class. He played a bunch of different games and told Markus all about it afterwards. Markus is going to try it out next week, he has cub scout camp for two of the days this week. He also wanted to sign up for the 4th of July kids run again this year. He wanted to go and start training tonight, so while Max had all-star practice I took him over to the park and he ran three 1/2 mile repeats, at 4:25, 4:15 and 4:08 on his first night! I couldn't believe it! He just kept getting faster each time he ran the course. He told me on the way to pick up Max that he wants to go over and run every night. By the time the race gets here he will probably be doing six minute miles - fast little guy!

I can't really tell if these pictures are any better than my old camera or not. What do you think?
