Joe and his friend Jack hold the plaque the Harlaxton Boys Team received for finishing first among 10 primary school competing in the Grantham cross country races.
At an awards ceremony following the final one and a half kilometer cross country run, Joe received a silver medal for earning second place in the boys division. In the three races Joe finished second, fourth and second, with about 100 runners competing in each race. The boys and girls teams from Harlaxton Primary School each earned first place for their overall team records. Joe says he is glad the final race is over because now he can play on the computer instead of run down to the main gate and back in the morning. On one of those runs, Joe and mom got to see the geese fly in from the Denton Reservoir and land in unison in the Harlaxton lake and that was a beautiful sight.
