Fifth grader Scott Jacquen won the title of fastest kid in the school with a time of 6:25. Tim Charles came in second with a time of 6:32.
Previous winners of the Waynedale Elementary School Wonder Mile were the Simpson twins. The Simpson girls went on to be outstanding athletes at Northrup High School, as well as, championship runners in college. Who knows what the future will hold for these Wonder Milers from Waynedale Elementary School.
