Track and Field Day

Friday was Kyle's 5th Grade Track and Field Day at Meadow Creek Christian School (MCCS). He had an awesome day for it - the weather was perfect - mid 80s and sunshine! He performed awesome as well - he left the day with 3 first place ribbons (high jump, 50 yard dash, and 4 x 200 meter relay) and 1 second place ribbon (softball throw). It was a great day, all around!!!!

High jump approach (his highest jump for first place was 3' 10"):

What did we do before high shutter speed cameras? I love being able to freeze time like this!










4 x 200 meter relay - Kyle was second leg, waiting for his partner to arrive:



Kyle received the baton in first place and perfect handoffs ensured a first place finish:







He's off:







I sprinted across the field myself to catch the handoff on the opposite side:

Nice one!



Congratulating his team at the finish line:





Blue ribbons for all:

Great job, Shawn, Kyle, Corbin, and Zach!

Ryan congratulating his big brother after the race:

Why take the time to use a porta-potty when there is grass right beside the playground?:

Unfortunately, the sunshine and high temps did not fare well for Carter - he suffered from heat exhaustion by the end of Kyle's race. Thankfully, he was fine by evening...
Great job today, Kyle - we are so proud of you!!!!
