Track

Yesterday was the first track meet of the year...

Actually, of ever for our family.

Now, let's be honest.

I can go toe-to-toe with anyone when it comes to discussing baseball, football, and MMA.

I am clueless when it comes to Track.

AND, I will never understand why anyone would choose to run... for fun.

WHY?!?!

Cooper told us a few months ago he was going to go out for the junior high track team.

I thought nothing of it.

I mean, he and Ryker are in football, baseball, and basketball... along with speed and agility.

So I just thought, yeah why not add more?

I also figured that a track meet was like one hour long.

I packed him one bottle of water with one Liquid IV pack with snacks...

First of all, they last four to five hours.

LONGER than a baseball or football game with zero action, People!

Second, he clearly needs at least three water bottles all with Liquid IV.

Third, he needs a really good breakfast and he HAS to eat lunch at school (which he never does) and I need to pack better snacks.

Fourth, apparently it's fine that kids line up "in front" of each other for races because when they turn the corner they are all evened up again or something. I thought for sure they were giving kids an advantage but I was incorrect.

Fifth, you want  to have Kehlani as your cheerleader.

"GOOOOOO Coopa! Get some!!!!!!!!"

Get some????

Where did she get that from?!

Isis ran Track in high school.

Sweet Girl, WHYYYY???

They are so supportive of everyone in our very large, blended family!

Coop ran the 200 meter.

4x200 relay (first place).

4x100 relay (first place).

High Jump.

Lani was very busy cheering and asking Papa for pizzzzzzza.

Oh, and killing ants!

I am SO glad we got him the neon yellow track shoes because I can pick him out of a crowd!
