Speed, stamina, and... a giant lawn flamingo? 🦩 Friday’s track practice was anything but ordinary! Our Spartans hit the pavement for the Junk Run, competing to find the most unusual items in the community. 🏃‍♂️💨

Hunt: Scouring the neighborhood for unwanted items.

Exhibit: A "junk" museum on the field!

Mission: Neighbors get a cleanup; we get a workout.

The creativity was off the charts this year! Congrats to the winning teams! 🥇
