Sam found a new passion this year.... track & field!
He ended his regular gymnastics trainings in December (his choice) and I was sad that he was no longer part of a team. But then track season began and he found a way to channel his strength, flexibility and power from years in the gym onto the field.
He really enjoyed jumping - including long jump, triple jump, high jump and pole vault - but also proved to be pretty fast so he got to be on a relay team. While it was a short and intense season with only 4 meets, he managed to rank first in the region for triple jump!
Looks like there may be a few years ahead of time on the track....
