He competed in the mile on Saturday and finished with a time of 5:10. He went into the race hoping he would get closer to 5:00, but was still pretty pleased with his time.
Here are a few shots. Lighting at an indoor track is not the best for photography. But I captured the moment, right? :)
Warming up with his teammate.
Lacing up his racing flats. Cool shoes, huh? 
Attaching his official racing number.
During the race.
Taking a look at his split times after the race. His initial reaction shows he wasn't really too pleased with what he saw. But later, he decided he got a pretty good time considering he hadn't raced in a while. I think he did great. I always tell him he can run almost twice as fast as me. I don't really think that's any consolation to him, however. ;)

These are such great pictures! You definately caught the moment!
I love the pictures Margaret, and why are our kiddos always so hard on themselves.
These are great shots! Really captured the moment...especially the last one!
Cari
Great shots!
Way to go! Make that 5 hours and 10 minutes and I just might make it. ;)
I like the shoe shot. I don't know what it is about shoes with me...LOL
Really great shots, Meg! You captured everything from beginning to end.
You got some great captures here. All that action.
Love that last one, it shows real emotion.
I'm glad once he had a chance to think about things that he's ok with how he did. Considering he hadn't raced in a while due to injury, he did great! Love those shoes, too cool, and you did a great job capturing it all.
Yes, I you did a great job of capturing the moments. I love the ones of the shoe, the close-up of the shirt, and the last one especially.
Great shots! Me too I think he did great!
Great shots! Me too I think he did great!
Margaret - if it's any consolation to you, I'm certain that you can run twice as fast as I can - Lance
Great action shots! Love the running shoe shot too!
Go Parker! LOL at your consolation.
I like the last one too, glad to hear he eased up on himself a bit. Very nice work
This is a goal of mine. i so want to run a marathon this year in october. maybe this will motivate me to get my bum in gear.
Track is such a great sport! Nice action shots, and I like the shoe photo:)
