That’s our 7th grade granddaughter Talli, in the lead above left, with a late kick yesterday approaching the finish line in the 800 meter run. She won the race in her best time ever. You can click on the photo for a larger image.
She can now run a mile faster than I ever ran one all through high school – or college, for that matter. Who says kids today aren’t in shape?!
What’s mind-boggling to me is that about an hour before the 800-meter run, she won the 7th grade 1500-meter run, also making her best time ever in that distance. You go, girl!
We made the two-day trip to Oregon and McMinnville high school to primarily watch Talli compete in probably her final Middle School Track Meet this school year before leaving for Japan late next week. She’s spending 10 days in the Kyoto area on a student exchange program.

Along with her parents, we’re very excited for her to have this wonderful opportunity. She’ll be living with a Japanese family while there who has a same-age daughter in school. Talli will attend school there with her host friend and participate in a lot of learning activities. More on her trip later when she returns.
