USATF New England's

Robbo ran a 15:01 in what turned out to be a tough, muddy, hilly, New Hampshire course. Placing 6th in the Youth (13-14 year-old) Division, Robbo led his team - which was made up entirely of 8th graders - to a second-place finish!

Below, Robbo's little brother Austin and his buddy wrestle while waiting for the race to begin:

Robbo at the 3.5K mark. He picked off 3 guys between here and the finish line!




Next up? AAU Nationals on December 5th! In the meantime... travel basketball season is underway. :-)
