Saint James XC Runner is World Champion

Congratulations to Saint James School Cross Country team member Aiden Puffer (who runs with SJS because his Catholic school does not have a XC team) who set a new WORLD track 5k record for 11-year-olds (with a time of 17:06.05) in Waltham, MA over the weekend.  The previous record was 17:06.93 set in South Africa.  Aiden’s SJS teammates were very excited to hear of their friend’s accomplishment and we at SJS feel quite blessed to have him on our team.
