Waverly to Run 1,600 and 2,400 Tomorrow
I just got off the phone with Waverly a few minutes ago and she indicated that the Twin Creeks Middle School track and field team has a practice meet tomorrow at Westfield High School with Wells and Bailey Middle Schools - two other Spring ISD facilities.
She ran a practice 1,600 today in 10:48 where she said that she ran 5:05 the first two laps then slowed down to 5:43 in the second two.
She thought she might get to do the shot put (6-lb.) when we talked last night; however, she'll do both distance events. I kind of thought things would work out this way since I figure most of the kids her age want to run the short distances and maybe don't have quite the discipline - or the concentration - to run the longer stuff.
Regardless of where she finishes or how she does, she'll benefit from the experience and will be able to say that this year she participated in three sports -- cross country, volleyball and track.
Dad, of course, is bummed since I won't be able to see her participate, but I'm happy to know that she went out and chose to be involved.
