ASD Middle School Falcons Track

When the season for track and field rolled around for middle school, Connor had no interest whatsoever in participating. Poor Connor has never been blessed with speed and agility, but considering that many of his friends are runners, we strongly encouraged (forced? haha) Connor to participate in track simply for the camaraderie and the experience. He begrudgingly went through the tryouts and was placed on the team, although he would tell you he was one of the slowest kids out there. He attended track practice several times a week during the short season, and we heard nonstop complaints the entire time. Due to many conflicts with our baseball schedule, Connor was only able to participate in one of the local track meets. I was happy to attend and witness the events in person, and despite Connor's negative attitude toward his track uniform a.k.a. "booty shorts," I could tell he was enjoying spending the afternoon/evening with many of his buddies.
