Track Meet

 Parker and Kasidee were able to run in a 4-school/ 5th grade track meet.  
 It was so fun!!  They bussed all the kids to a local high school, and all the kids were able to run in 2 races and do 2 field events.

 Parker ran the 50 m, and the 4 x 400m relay.
 He took first in both his running events.  
 Kas also ran the 50m, and then she ran the 4x200m relay.  I'm not sure if I wrote that right...each kid ran 50m in her relay.
 She took 3rd in her individual race, and 2nd in her relay.  She did awesome!!!
 Mark was reliving his track-star days, helping down on the field with the races. 
 Here's Kas in her relay.  She was the final runner.  It was so close...
 You can see the girl in the far right of the photo crossing the finish line only a step before Kas.
 Mark had lots of advice for Parker before his relay race...
 "Whatcha gotta do..."


 Parker was the first runner for his relay team.  They did great!
Watching the kids today, made me SO excited for the fun stuff ahead!  Next year is middle school (CRAZY), and maybe they will run track...fun stuff!
