Summer Track Season is Officially Open!

Summer track has started in Texas! Our first meet was in Arlington and was a BEATING! Unfortunately, the host track club was inexperienced and the meet ran very very very long! My daughter was very disappointed when we left the meet at 6pm and they were still on the 200m run. She didn't get to run the mile this week but we were baking in the sun from 7:30 am until 6 pm and even the rundoc has her limits! Southlake track team did very well. We excelled in the distance races and the hurdles. Pictures to come in the next few days so check back! On a personal note, my daughter Alex came in 6th in the 10 and under long jump and 4th in the shot! (only little girl who had the shuffle technique down!) Caitlin placed 6th in the 8 and under 50m, 100m and 800 meters and 7th in the 400m as well as 8th in the long jump! Busy day for Caitlin! She was tired but beaming with her ribbons....Congrats to all my running peeps and their kids! It was the first track meet for Claire, Tatum, Grant, Lordis and Ben! Everyone did great and the parents survived! Nothing more heart warming than watching your kids enjoy a sport that you love! Next week the meet is home at Carroll High School.....

Run Happy! And stay cool......
