A chilly morning with a lot of waiting for events. It was worth the wait to watch Layne run the mile.
I was bundled up so I didn't get very cold. Once in a while I would walk around the school to warm up. There were 24 schools at this track meet. Huge meet. I was thinking a couple of heats for each event. Not true. Lots of heats for each event. How the kids stayed warm while they waited I have no idea.
Here we go! Off to the races. This was the 1600 meter run (mile). There were several heats and Layne was in in the first heat.
Some instruction I assume.
Off they go! It was a little more picture friendly this time but still hard to keep up with the girls for pictures. Lap number one of four.
Lap number two from the other side of the track. You could come down on the grass area in the middle of the track so I could go back and forth to different places along the track.
Lap # 3 I think!
The last lap! Headed to the finish line.
Layne came in 9th out of the 46 girls that ran the race. Pretty darn good for her first year running track. It was so worth the wait to watch her.
