AAU Track Meet

Taylor ran in her first AAU track meet today. The meet was a district qualifier for the regional meet. The top three place finishers in each age group qualifiy for the regional meet. She ran the 3000m run for the first time today and will run in the 1500m run tomorrow.
Taylor was scheduled to run 3000m at 8:00am and we had to be there at 7:00am. The meet was about 30 minutes away so we left early to make sure we got there on time. We got there at 6:30am, you can see, Taylor is not used to being up at 5:30am.
The teams set up tents in the stands to have a shady place to sit. These are the long distance runners in Taylor's club. Taylor's event was delayed due to computer issues so she didn't run until just after 10:00am. The girls run first, than the boys. All age groups together.
I thought that all of these tents in the stands looked very funny.
