How so? Once Matthew is done, I can concentrate on what I need to get
done for my runs. Monday sounds like a really good idea from this
perspective--and all the nice comments and volunteering to work for the
FJr running is so very cool. Matthew (who gets a huge kick out of
reading Formula Junior posts) is lucky to be growing up in such a
supportive atmosphere.
(And yes, the kids at school think it is massively cool that Matthew
races.)

And make them miss more school. BTW, as always, the Clements TV/VCR
combo will be around whenever we are for all kids (FJr or not) who need a
Disney break from course walking...

And do I get his entry fee back if I decide he hasn't been good enough to
run? Of course not. Never set up contingencies you aren't prepared to
implement (your free advice from a child clinical psychologist).
