Well, Brittany had her time trials on Saturday. She was pretty nervous about it. There were about 35 girls running, so it was a decent turnout. I am thrilled to report that she finished in FIRST PLACE...WOO HOO! The #2 girl was her best friend, Alicia, who was about 25 secs. behind her. From what I saw, I think the girls' and boys' team have an excellent chance of placing in the top 10 at STATE in November, if everything continues to go well. How exciting that would be!
Here they are at the start of the time trials...
Brittany coming in to the final stretch...
Following the time trials, the boys' coach had a party for all the seniors and their families. We had so much fun!Brittany and Alicia...joined at the hip!
Getting in a game of volleyball.
Brittany and her good friend, Jonathon, battling it out in Wii boxing. Brittany got KNOCKED OUT! He had no mercy on her!
The girls started back to school today...it sure it quite around here. I miss them! I'll post about how everything went tomorrow. Have a good one!

Congratulations Brittany! You go girl! And April, I do hope that your problems are behind you, Sweets. Still praying.:) Lori
Congratulations to your daughter on getting first place!
I'm sorry to hear you're having back pain. I can (sort of) relate, because I have been having incredible hip pain lately, which has been an on again off again thing since I had my daughter 4 years ago. and I've had some chronic knee and ankle problems due to past injuries. not fun at all! I think it's worse this year because of all the rain we've had!
Anyway I hope you're able to find the source of your pain and that it is easily corrected. Good luck!
p.s. I'm having a giveaway on my blog!
Well done to Brittany. Great news about her team. I enjoyed seeing her running and then relaxing with her friends.
I hope everything goes ok on Wednesday. You are in my prayers.

Glad to know that you'll see the doctor soon... it sounds as if things are intensifying, so being prepared is a GOOD thing! And Brittany.. WOOT WOOT! I'm not surprised, with all of the running she did over the summer. Talk about being prepared... and it paying off! Yay... I hope to see her picture on the front of the sports page of the AJC!
Glad you are feeling better! Keep us posted on what the doctor says!
Congrats to B and I am wishing her much luck with this season. Can't wait to hear all about their first day at school.
She can run like the wind! Way to go Brittany. :)
April, it makes me cringe to think of how that must hurt. Hopefully you will not have any more episodes before you see the doc. Keeping my fingers crossed.
So glad to hear the pain hasn't gotten worse and is giving you a break! I will be praying for you!
CONGRATS to Brittany on her 1st place finish!!! All that running and hard work this summer payed off!! Hard to believe kids are already back in school....it seems like summer just started!
Congrats Brittany, woo hoo. Praying for your doctor appointment on wednesday.
WooHOO for Brittany!!!! It looks like they had so much fun at the party.
It is hard to believe it is back to school time already. Lexi doesn't go back until the 19th but she does start back with dance today. She is quite excited.
I'm so sorry about all of your back pain. I hope you find the cause of it soon. My hubby has been having some lower back problems and has been in agony many times. Usually the chiropractor helps but he has been going for two weeks and really no relief. I hope he hasn't done something awful to it.
That's great about Brittany and her teammates possibly going to state. Yea! And I'm proud of her coming in first. Way to go!
Now, I'm wanting you to feel better, and I can't wait to hear what the doctor says. I will be computerless for a few days, but I will check in with you later. I don't have internet at our retreat, and I've go to go work there.
XO,
Sheila :-)
Sorry, April... I goofed and had to erase that last post. It's been a loooooong day. ;-)
Yay Brittany!!!!!
Oh no... you're poor back!!! Praying for quick healing & recovery!!!!
I bet your house feels so empty today.
And how does Brittany do those races & look like she's not even out of breath... wow!
Congrats to Brittany! I'm glad to hear that you are feeling better, I hope the doctor can give you some more answers.
So glad to hear the good results of the time trials April. Is it just me, or did your girl's summer vacation just fly by?
I hope you get a good doctor's report. Praying for no more pain...
Glad to hear you are on the mend!
Congrats to Brittany, that is great :)
I am so sorry to hear about your back. Maybe the stones passed. They say the worst part is moving to the bladder. :o(
Congrats to Brit!
Great job, Brittany! I can't believe your girls started school already- it seems way too early!!!
It seems too soon to start back to school.
Your back pain sounds like a herniated disk (slipped disk) which can slip in and out. If so, being careful not to abuse it with quick movements and TIME will heal it.
Thanks for sharing. Happy Blue Monday.
Glad you're better and yahoo for Brittany!!! can't believe school is starting again!!! :0
