Our indoor conference track meet was yesterday and half the team is gone on a band and choir trip. The track coach asked DD if she could help them out because the were really short on sprinters and the AD and softball coach gave their blessing. DD ran the 55 meter dash, 4x200, and 4x400. She took 2nd in the conference in the 55 and had never even practiced starting out of blocks before the meet! The girl who beat her was FAST!

Yes. Shameless parent brag. I think there are a lot of softball players out there who could be good at track but never get the chance.

Congrats to your DD! That's cool that the coaches and the AD cooperated for the opportunity.

Congrats! My DD throws shot and disc on softball off days. Coaches at the high school and middle school have worked it out so they are both happy lol. Which means no running at track for her haha only throwing. She's happy :)

The 4x400 was a good gut check for her. She went out way too fast and got passed by a couple girls in the last 100m.
