Spectating, again!

Today I had the pleasure of watching my son Ali get a PB on his 800m race - currently unofficially 2 min 11 sec. For his age group if he'd got under 2:10 he would have got a UK ranking. He could hardly walk after it but recovered over the next hour to take part in the long jump followed by a 400m. I almost had to carry him out after that as he'd given it everything - nothing was left on the track. Spectating gives you a different perspective on events but it makes me all the more determined to "get better". But watching athletes,and their parents, at the start of their careers learning their trade. It's great to see so many kids taking part and trying their best. Not sitting on a couch getting fat while they play on the xbox! So the rest continues but I am hoping to start light training next week. I'm not convinced about my foot but time will tell.
