Track Stars

From June to July the boys participate in the Needham Track Club, which proves to be great exercise and fun. This summer proved to be tough because the heat was unbelievable.  There were days where the boys were running and it was close to 90 degrees.  Honestly, I was sweating just standing on the side lines.  Towards the end of track, they hold the Olympics.  They competed in many events:  hurdles, long jump, 50 yard dash, 400m run and many others.
Here is Garrett completing his long run which was close to 400m.  He is as speedy as a little bullet.
Connor's age group was put onto teams and competed in a long relay race.  Connor was a good sport when his team finished third.  Connor, as always, ran his heart out.
Here is the hurdles relay race.  The kids are so competitive but really do have fun.  Especially when they get an ice pop after every night of hard work.  Good Work Boys!!
