Track Stars

July 26, 2008 was the boys State Cara Track meet. It was held up in Longmont. And I'm so glad we're done with that! Don't get me wrong, I love to watch my boys compete at these things, it's just the early morning practices and Saturday meets kinda gets old after awhile.

The boys did great. We are so very proud of them. They ended up being finalists in 4 events, which is very impressive considering there are hundreds of kids that compete.

Kainoa: Baseball Throw-2nd Place, 5th place finalist; 50m run-2nd place(in his heat)8th place finalist; 800m run-5th place finalist

Jaedyn: Baseball Throw-2nd place; Standing Long Jump-2nd place, 5th place finalist; 100m dash- 3rd place; 50m dash-1st place(in his heat)

This was Kainoa's 3rd year running for Wheat Ridge Cara Track Team and Jaedyn's 1st year.

They did enjoy this summer of track and running--everywhere!

Boys had lots of support at their last meet of the summer. Mamo, Grandma and Grandpa, and Teri were there to bare the heat with us!
