The Capitol School

Five Capitol School elementary school students ran in the Mayor’s Cup 5K event in downtown Tuscaloosa on Saturday, April 24, 2010. The runners included Melanie Mew, Tayler Daughtry, Kristin Hobson, and Marko Beasley. Marko won third place in his age division. All runners completed the race through the pouring rain, and they refused to quit!
