Spring Track

Now that the basketball season has ended, we have moved on to spring track. Yesterday was the first meet. They're still trying to figure out what events they are best at, etc. Josh ran the 400, the 200, the 4 X 200, and the 4 X 400. He did pretty well for himself. He placed 5th in his heats in the 400 and the 200, I think. His 4 X 200 & his 4 X 400 teams both placed third. He placed 9th out of 25 kids in the 400 & like 18th in the 200. They all did really well, especially for their first meet. His 4 X 200 team is all freshmen.

Yes, we did have that little club going. As I recall, I never did leave that club, but I was unable to convince you of it's merits! I loved working with the track team--it was so fun!

Nice way to get outside and give some support to Josh.
