Brittany was invited to join the Springville track team this summer because she placed second when she ran the 400 meter race at the Hershey track meet that all the schools from the Springville area compete in during the school year. During the practices she had this summer, she was also invited to join a relay team. There were four girls on the team and they ran in this order: Mikayla, Sierra, Brittany, and Christina. They each ran 100 meters of a 400 meter relay. The first meet for the summer (which was the district meet) took place at Spanish Fork High school. Britt ran two races, she ran the 400 meter, and the 4 by 100 relay. She took 5th place in the 400 meter race (which was partially my fault because I made her drink too much water and she got really bad side aches and sick to her tummy..) and her relay team took 1st place!! Her relay team taking first place moved them on to the state competition which took place at Mountain View High school. They were AWESOME!! They took second in the state competition!!! Although they won't be going on to the regional competition (which I am kind of relieved about too, seeing as it takes place in Pennsylvania!), they were all very happy getting second place and it was VERY close!! They were only a tenth of a second behind the team that got first! She is a SPEED DEMON!! I asked her if she wanted to continue to participate in track in the future and her response was a very excited.. "YEAH!" hehe I forgot my camera BOTH times.. (GRRRR) but luckily at the state meet Grandma and Grandpa Rock were able to come and they brought TWO cameras!!! So, as soon as I get the pics from them I will get them posted!! :)
