Here are some pictures of our day.
Here we are ready to leave the house, Esther is impressed.
Here is Van walking to the start of the race, we had to walk pretty far just to find the start.
I filled his backpack full of racing snacks and water.
Doing a few warmup sprints.
Some pre-race snow climbing
We ran into Allison, Andy and Clem at the start of the race!
Here's Van racing!
Go, baby go!
Stopping for a little walk rest.
He saw a duck.
Then for a while he got pretty tired, he was ready to be done, he wanted to sit on a bench. But luckily Daddy came to cheer us on! That really lifted his spirits.
Some mid race encouragement :)
Here he is moments after he crossed the finish line!
So pleased with his 'golden medal', which was handed to him by Tasha Bergt, Svea and my old ski coach.
He is tired.
Luckily they had free bread to give us energy to walk back to the car.
Back at the parking lot, a post race thumbs up.
Great job Van!
