NWC Winter Track Part II

Elizabeth had a terrific winter track season.  She barely missed qualifying for states in the 55m (by .03 seconds) and got faster and faster every time she stepped on the track.  She absolutely loves running the relay, although she was frustrated each week with the fact that the coaches kept changing the order on her team.  She was the fastest leg on the relay team every race they ran, regardless of which leg she ran.  In their final race of the season, the coaches put her at the third leg and I challenged her to bring her split under 30 seconds.  She met the challenge, running a 29.1, which really gave her an idea of what she is capable of. I can't wait to watch her run next winter!
55m hurdles after only three days of practicing them - why not?

She's running the third leg in this relay, and knew the girl that she was trying to catch (a former teammate from travel lacrosse).  My favorite part of this race is when the girls head turns on the curve because she can't believe that Elizabeth caught up to her.
