Not Much To See Here...

This is what Rosenblatt Stadium looked like tonight on my bike ride.

Emily's Track Meet

Emily fueled up with some goodies from Dad's bag of "magic potions."
Emily had a track meet at Omaha Benson today and it was my first chance to watch her in action. She only ran in one event, the 800 meters (as shown on the schedule, pictured at right). It was a bit of a blustery, cool day (at least in the shade) but no admission was charged, so that was nice.


Although I don't have her time, Emily did a good job of staying with the lead pack for much of the first lap. She finished strong and was upbeat and looking forward to her next meet afterwards.
That's Julia and Olivia sharing the blanket.
Lauren was also bundled up to ward against the chill of the shade.

I can't remember who took this photo.
I helped remind Emily and her teammates how the 800 is run.
Uncle Jon was there taking in all the action.
As they rounded the curve to the home stretch, Emily was in the second pack.
You can't miss Emily and her pony tail.
Emily waited to hear her time, which I believe was three-something.
Another track meet in the books for Emily in her freshman year.
