Sports Day - Part 1: Livia

Livia pulled a face for every other shot I took of her. That means I have over 100 pictures of her being monstrous on Thursday.


Her egg already fell once, broke open, and nearly fell again. She yelled at it to stay put. Seemed to work. Dig that tongue of concentration.

Kira always comments, so I thought I'd out her here, put a face with the name.

One of the things that I thought was good about Sport's day is that each heat was broken into groups according to the average level of a given athlete's yearly performance. So, all of the slowest people ran together and all of the fastest people ran together. This meant that everybody had a chance to win, even if they were in the bottom to middle of the pack normally. Most of the kids tried very hard to win their given events.

For those that have done track in a sporting event, you truly leave nothing on the table. It's a matter of controlling your adrenaline so that you don't burn out too quickly, and of course, conditioning. If you've run in a meet (and I mean a real meet, not just some fun), then you know what I'm talking about. You are so drained afterwards that it's scary. Until you've done it yourself, you just don't know.

I didn't know what to expect, but enjoyed myself. It was frightfully windy and I failed to wear a hat. I got pretty badly sunburned, but that's life. I was certain to remember the following day with Lena.
