Subbie Year Track

Image
            Throwback to subbie year. A simple selfie after a track meet holds so many memories of pain, excitement, and relief.                         It was our conference meet at PBL (Paxton-Buckley-Loda) the whole team dressed in the old but still bright orange uniforms. The 4 by 4 was happening. Arguably the most exciting event of a track meet. One, it’s the last event. Everyone crowding around the outside of the track cheering on their relay. Two, the 400 is fast enough were there is always something happening. HUGE comebacks can happen in a 400 and your position can change in an instant.                        Our 4 by 4 team was Olivia, Danbi, Allie, and I. Danbi was our main distance runner, running the 1600, 800, and finishing it off with the 4 by 4. Allie was the sprinter of the group running 200, 100, and once again ending with the 4 by 4. Olivia ran the 200 as well. I was a mid-distance runner rounding it out with the 400, 800, and long jump.
