Parents of athletes and the long days


 This is what parents do with kids in sports. This IS track and in this case even the college kids drove 1.5 hours to watch little sister run and little brother tagged along to cheer the track team on with other track siblings his age.  But 8 hours of actual track on a HOT day took its toll and mom and big sis took a nap on the bleachers.  Yes we put on sunscreen and reapplied multiple times.  We pack lots of sandwiches and snack and water.  There wasn’t enough water in the world for how hot we were.  But our girls relay took first in both events so we were super happy.     

Anyone else have track and field kids?  What do you do to pass the time when none of the kids running are your kids let alone even from your school?  We walked around, stretched, napped and watched other events.  

11 hour day and that shower was amazing!   Hope everyone’s track kids are doing great!
