It was a fun race to watch. On the Weber State indoor track, the 2-milers have to run 16 laps. By the time Parker was done, he had lapped several people.
He also ran the 800-meter race, but really had nothing left to give at that point. It was still fun to watch him, though.
:)
The intensity at the starting line.
And they're off!
Parker was in the lead for the first couple of laps. Then he fell behind to third and fourth for several laps. He managed to pull into the lead again with just a couple of laps to go. He ran his last lap in 32 seconds. It was amazing the speed he poured on at the end. Woo hooooooooo!!!
Headed to the finish line. The guys on the far right still have a lap or so to go....The guy in the second lane is the second place finisher.
"What was my time, Dad?"
At the starting line for the 800-meter race. Look at those faces! Talk about intense!
Cubby's leg art. (Done with a Sharpie!) Translation: SPEED
The amazing Coach Wiley! He's the best!
Parker, Kiana and Cubby smile as they get ready to go home. :)

Yea for Parker. Nicely captured. (serious intensity is his thing when it comes to running.)
