She Throws Like a Girl

For her last semester of high school, Faith decided to join the Track and Field team.  And I'm so glad she did!  She's been having a really great time-- enjoying meeting new friends and throwing heavy objects pretty far.

I thought it was pretty gutsy of her to join as a senior. 
She prefers javelin and discus to shotput, but she usually does all three at meets.

Ben did some throwing in high school as well and it was so cute of him (and Abe) to go support Faith at this meet.  If you thought swim meets were long.... they don't hold a candle to the length of track meets!

Faith and Ruthie are twinner throwers.




I love this picture of Bethany and Faith at another meet.
 At the parents meeting at the start of the season the coach explained that the varsity team went to different meets than JV and a select few would be invited to a meet down in St. George.  Faith leaned over to me and said, "I WILL go to that meet."  Sure enough, she did well enough right off the bat, that she did indeed go to that meet.
