Over a 2-hour period, they competed in 8 different events: obstacle course, 2.5 km run, 100m sprint, power hold, standing long jump, pushups, sit-ups and wall sit. Quinton placed 1st in pushups and power hold , and 2nd or 3rdin most of the other events.
After a high-energy morning, when most other kids his age had a chance to sleep in and relax, Quinton tied for 2nd, a mere 1 point behind a student from Kortright Hills School.
