I finally got to go to one of my niece's track meets yesterday! I think watching Tashena throwing (and occasionally jumping) is a much better way to spend an afternoon than grading papers! Wouldn't you agree? However, I didn't actually get to see her do any throwing or jumping because she competed in all of her events (discus, shot put, javelin, and long jump) before the meet started because it was held at Bountiful (her home school) and she had to help run the discus. Hey, at least I had an excuse to leave school at a decent hour! Her best throw in discus was 115' for first place, her best throw in shot put was 31'6" for second place, her best throw in javelin was 89'2" for first place, and her best distance in long jump was 15'1" for first place. That's not too shabby! She told me that this meet didn't matter because it wasn't a qualifying meet and told me to come to the meet next week! I'll be there!
