Went to the track today

Nick made the track team this year. They only have one track meet, and it is a big deal for the 6 or so 4th grade boys who make the team from school. They will compete in a few weeks against all of the other local 4th graders. He qualified for both a running event and the long jump, but are only allowed to compete in one, so he chose the long jump.

Today, Nick, Sarah, their friend, Josh, and I went to Halls High School (where the meet will be held) and practiced the long jump. Their friend Josh is in the 5th grade and he too is doing the long jump at the meet.

It was a bit warm today, but nothing to complain about. The kids had a ball and of course, I took a camera to document the fun / training.

Sarah & Nick look like they are going to do an awesome job. I know that whatever the outcome, they're going to give it their best shot, and that's what matters the most!
