First Track Meet!

This weekend we had our first indoor track meet of the season! Yay! We’ve been waiting all semester for it:)

Overall, we had a great meet. I ran the 600 meters and the 400 meter relay. Now I’m hungry to get my times down.

There were many personal records set and qualifying times made on Saturday. And our first years brought such a positive energy to the team dynamic. It blew us all away and carried the team through to the end of the day. Even at 5:00pm, getting ready for the 400 meter relay, we barely noticed how exhausted we were because everyone was so happy and excited to be there. I can’t thank the first years enough for their energy and dedication. They inspire me every day.

First years being goofy at the end of the day:)

 

Now, track gears down (only individual practices now through the end of finals), and finals gear up (only a lot of studying now through the end of finals;) ). Even so, I will be spending mornings enjoying crisp running weather around the lake, afternoons sipping tea, and evenings with the people I love. With only one semester left, I feel a deep pull to enjoy the sunset of this precious experience that I’ve had here at Wellesley College.

So thank you first years, thank you track, thank you Wellesley. Peace.
