The two oldest went to regional track today. Linc competed in the discus while Holl competed in the 100 M hurtles and the high jump. Wife and 'Leenie went down to Evan's town to watch them. Linc is new to the discus having started it this year as well as shot put because of a leg injury he was not able to high jump, long jump, triple jump or 110 M hurtle. He placed 12th over all in the discus. Holl was 17th in the 100 M hurtles with a fair time but she qualified for state track by placing 4th in the high jump with a leap of 4'11" which was 3" more than her previous best! There is much to be said about mental barriers. They can be just as real as any other kind of barrier. *note* the top eight in each event go to state track.

Way to linc & Hol. Keep us updated.
Congratulations Linc & Holl for doing as well as you did. You are both so diligent in trying to do your best in track (and most other activities in your lives). Hope Holl has a positive experience at State Track meet this coming week.We'll be rooting for her from far away!
You go Linc and Holl!
Hoping for the best at the track meet! Linc is improving rapidly! I'm wondering about the hand. How is it anyway?
