First track meet

Kami just experienced her first track meet and she did such a super job!  I was running to pick up Caden and Maddie from piano lessons and got to the track meet right after she finished the 800 meter run. (sigh)  I had Shawn grab a few pictures; she got first place with a time of 3:13.

Then we had to wait for awhile for her next event and try to keep her, and ourselves, from freezing to death.  These spring sports are brutal!  It was cold and rainy and the little girls spent their time fighting over who got the umbrella, while Abram and Nolan ran up and down the ramp that led to the stadium seating, and Caden was nice enough to keep an eye on them.

Kami's final event, the 1600 meter run, ended up being the final event of the meet. She was the only girl who signed up for this one, so she got to run with the boys. At least that's an automatic first place!:)  She held her own with the boys, though, and finished with a time of 6:54.  Not a personal best, but close.  We were proud of her, and she is excited for the next meet.

  1. Yea Kami! You go, girl! I can't believe she took 1st place in her first meet! I want to come watch her! I LOVE track! Of course, in Utah, it was warm in the spring, so it was a bit more pleasant.
