Brady at Track Camp

Track camp was perfect for Brady!  So far, he hasn't shown much interest in joining a big team sport (he's happy on his own or with a few friends - he's not a big group person yet).  But he is a runner!  He's pretty speedy and he has amazing endurance!  So track camp was just right for him.  His good friend Wesley did it with him, which made it even more fun and special!

 

Here's Brady in action at track camp:
