Several things mark the end of the school year for the kids. One of the first is the annual track meet between a dozen or so private schools. TVJA is more of a soccer school than a track school, so the meet is a good time to have fun, run as fast as you can, and basically enjoy the beginning of the Memorial Day weekend.
Isaac made the team this year. Then didn’t. Then did. He ended up running a leg of the 4×100 relay and the 300m, which is run at the end of the meet and competes with fatigue, the heat, and hungry stomachs.

Isaac expressed some anxiety about the relay all week and you can see it in this photo a few minutes before they got staged.

I think they took a respectable third.

Some day Gabe will realize he’s surrounded by girls, but today doesn’t seem to be that day.
