Highlights of an epic Eliteam Friday… – Margaret overcoming her fear of heights to attack all three high ropes elements. – Natalie describing the feeling of happiness when she crossed the incline log to reach the far tree. Her face completely lit up. – Matthew pushing through his limits and surpassing his goal on the tightrope, not only reaching the cargo net, but reaching the far tree and ringing the bell. – Watching from the second floor of the gym as 21 young athletes made their way through the tough, technical agility course with precision. – Witnessing Cassie's surprising 3rd place Sandpit Slalom run as she was on the verge of crashing the entire 24.93 seconds. – Watching Tommy get too low on a gate in the Sandpit and crash sliding headfirst down the sand, then getting up and finishing 10 seconds out, but on the results sheet! – Driving home in the van from Sandpits as dime sized hail and sheets of rain fell between thunder claps. – Doing 21 pushups in 25 seconds with my circuit group, side by side on the mat with the two Amelias. – Watching Dan & Pete both catch the Jello for a perfect score of "2" during the jello drop. – Seeing Abby do the Sprinkler to perfection during our dance rehearsal. – Writing this at 9:05pm in complete silence as my entire dorm of boys are in their own beds ASLEEP!
