of kids from Quitman High School Cross Country Team that ran in this great event.

Well I did carry it for a little while.   It was very light in weight.
Phillip Wedgeworth kept telling me "a little further."

After eight miles from Lost Gap Junction to Chunky MS.  Tired, sweaty but feeling good.    Now the girls have to go to basketball practice.
