track meet

Yesterday was one of the two track meets we are going to have this season. I have six runners (5 guys, 1 girl) and they ran their best times and I was proud of each and every one of them. These are just some pictures taken of the runners praying before the run, the starting line and the last one is I am not sure. I am sure I am giving some words of advice or wisdom.... hehehe

It is amazing the heat they run in. I remember running in the middle of the afternoon for my track meets, but I don't recall the afternoons getting in the 90's, but they do well. I guess it is just what you get used to.

I have convinced the team that running is mostly mental, so they will say often to me that "today is a strengthening of the mind exercise right, coach!!" It is always weird to here them say coach...
Anyway, track meet number one has come and gone. I am grateful. I am off to take a couple of group members that are here to OLA (one of the children's homes we minister alongside) and then take the kids for pizza and ice cream. Pictures to come....
