That's A Wrap on Track...

 Track Meet #3

Remi has pretty much secured his place in pole vault and 110H, but this track meet, they added the 300H. He was not happy about this at all and was extremely nervous. I was also nervous because I knew this would be a very tough race! My goal for this meet was for him to not fall doing his hurdles. I'm happy to report that not only did he not fall on either race, but he didn't get last on the 110H. He did get last on the 300H, but he made it! He said he thought he might collapse at the end, it was so hard! But I'm all about conquering the hard! He didn't make it through the first round of pole vault, so he was pretty bummed about that.

Track Meet #4

This time, they went back to just pole vaulting and 110H. He doesn't love the hurdles, but was ecstatic that he wouldn't be doing the 300H. In pole vault, he made it through the first round, clearing 6'. He tied for 5th and was very happy about this. Again on the hurdles, he didn't fall and didn't get last, so I'm celebrating these baby steps of improvements!

Track Meet #5

Remi finished his track season back in pole vault and the 110 H. We were dealing with weather and so in order to get all events done, they only let jumping events have two attempts. This took away an attempt for Remi at each height. He did get through to the second round but was pretty frustrated that he didn't clear  6 ft, since he had cleared 6'6" in practice that morning. He ended up in last in hurdles again, but I was just thankful that he didn't fall! 

I think next year, Remi would love to just do pole vault- the hurdles were very hard for him! BUT, he showed up and did them every-time he was put in that event. I think this track season he proved to himself, that he can do hard things! I was proud of his attitude over being put in events that pushed him and I love that in trying new things, he found something he loves!
