At the end of May, Thatcher Elementary has a long standing tradition of a end of the year Track and Field Competition. Each student gets to pick four events to compete in and there is also a class relay race. McCoy was really looking forward to this day. Parents and grandparents come and watch, cheering on their favorites. McCoy chose softball toss, soccer kick, backwards race, and the marathon (which was one lap around the track). After the track and field events the students go to lunch with their families.

McCoy did a great job at his events and had a lot of fun. Afterword he picked his favorite mexican restaurant for lunch. McCoy loves chips and salsa! That was the best prize for a race well run!
