The Meet That Never Was (Bull Frog)

Is this what you call a false start?

What we thought would be a beautiful day for a cross country meet turned into a cancelled meet due to bad weather (and cancelled just in time--10 minutes after it was called, there was a downpour with thunder and lightening!).

Below are a few pictures that got taken before the storm arrived.

You can see just a hint of the dark clouds that were starting to head our way across the lake.


(Sorry guys, no pictures this time around.  Hopefully next time!)

Just so you know, there's no particular order with these photos.  I'm still learning the ropes of how to place them.  I'll get better as the season progresses.  Enjoy!

Both boys and girls must run the first mile more aggressively.
Looks like it’s time for mile re-peats."
