Middle School Track Meet

The 2nd meet of the year was hosted at Louisville Midde School. In the first meet, T-man did all field events and Marshall missed all the events. This has been frustrating to us as T-man is a really good runner. 

This week, he decided to do the 100 yard dash which is a step in the right direction, but not his best distance.  Our friend talked the boys into running the 400 and he won his heat and got 2nd overall. He’s currently doing probability in math class and we talked about how many kids run each events and the odds of winning. We also talked about the fact that he was stronger in the distance events (and he brought up the fact that a girl in track can beat him in the 100, but he beats her in the longer distances. 

In the end, he states he still doesn’t like running, but we were proud of him for pushing himself in the meet. And he still took advantage of all the field events.
