Track has started again. It seems just like yesterday that it was that time...it seems to come around so fast. And it seems to be never ending once it gets here. Our Saturdays are gone when this season hits and so it is now. Either every Saturday or a Friday Night and we are at a meet.
March 15 was the first meet....and it was in Pueblo....and it lasted ALL DAY. Megan is only in 2 events, but they seem to start late, take longer than expected and so we are there for the duration. But we are happy to be there to support her and are always cheering her one whether it is warm or chilly. As you can see, it was chilly that day and just got worse and worse as the day progressed.
We were chilled to the bone and starving by the time we left mid afternoon. I was just glad the other girls were not with us as they would have been frozen too.
This meet the girls team all together placed 3rd, so that was amazing! Megan placed 9th in Discus with a throw of 93' 5" and 11th is Shot Put with a distance of 28' 5".
She wants to throw 100' and 30' before the season is over, so we will see how she does. She can do it as she has thrown those both in practice.
The next weekend we were back in Pueblo for the 2nd meet....still chilly but not as bad thank goodness. This time, Jenna was also competing in her first High School Varsity Track Meet. It was pretty exciting and she did well for a first meet. They are twiners!
She was jumping high jump and clear 4' 4". Not her best, but she will get there. That girl can jump!
Megan came in 7th in Discus with a throw of 99' 3"....oh so close!
In Shot, she threw 30' 6".....yes, she made it over 30 feet. You can sure tell by the smile on her face in the last pix. Now to just be consistent with that.
It was fun to be down there with these 2 girls of mine, ok 3 Kayla was with me too. Love them to pieces and I am their best cheerleader for sure!
