Today started with my nephews cross country meet. He is a freshmen at Torrance High and made the varsity cross country team, although he ran as a freshmen during this meet. His coach wants him to see how it feels to place, if not win, a meet, so he had him run on the freshmen team.
Before this meet his best time was 19min's. His official time was 17min's giving him second place with the boys freshmen team. Congratulations Draven, you did an outstanding job and are going to be an asset to the varsity team.
Prior to the start of his race I walked the course and found three spots to get some decent shots of him. This meet was held at a park, which made it rought to find a clear spot to shoot from that didn't give me a distracting background. All in all I was happy with my positioning and my shots.
This first shot was taken just about 1/4 mile into the race.
This next shot was taken at the half-way point.
And here are a few shots as my nephew approaches the finish-line.
Great pictures as always bro.... thanks so much for taking these =)
