Track Star






Our school district does elementary track, for all ages. Since it was a free activity that didn't require much committment, we convinced Ellie that she should do it. She is so funny about new things, she was so nervous. Thy divided them up by grade and gender. There were 3 events, long jump, softball throw and 50 meter run. She did fine on the first two events (standing long jump and softball throw) then came the 50 meter. She ran her little heart out. For a good portion of te race she was in first place. She finished in 3rd. Which was pretty awesome. We couldn't be more proud of her!

Way to go Ellie! When Carson and Abby saw the picture of her running, Carson said, "No fair. I wish our school had track." Tell her we are proud of her too.
