ZIZO #17: Watching My Girl Run

I love watching this girl run. She's strong. She's fast.

And she's a winner. Here she is, leading the pack and heading toward the finish line in a 1600 meter race. I've been spending a lot of time at track meets this spring. Watching her run the 1600, the 800 and occasionally the 3200. She also does relays (often running 400 meters).

This group of girls is her high school 4x1600 meter relay team. They have performed so well this year that they were invited to compete in the highly selective Arcadia Invitational in Southern California. I was one of the parent drivers who went along on the trip. It was a long drive and a tiring weekend.

But definitely worth it to give the girls the fantastic experience of participating in a high level, professional meet. The did great, setting a new school record and placing well among the elite competition. They also had fun!

They're a great group of girls, and so happy that Clara has gotten to know them and now calls them friends. Posting to zoom in zoom out, the wonderful meme sponsored by Helena.
