Lily only has county, sectionals and then STATE!...........left in her season. This has been such a great experience for her and she has grown SO much at each race!
So, this past meet, she was FOURTH on the team!
I mean!
She just keeps pushing and pushing!
So, (I cannot wait to see how this plays out) Tyler made a deal with her.
There was a lady that had the cutest little puppies at the meet. She mentioned that they only get up to four pounds. That sent Lily into a BEGGING mode....................to which.............
(you dont know how bad he wants her to be first).................
well..............
(you dont know how bad she wants a dog)..................
SO, back story!..............
Tyler and her were replaying the meet and talking about how hard she had pushed...and Lily made the comment that she 'wasnt that tired'...........but then immediately knew to back track and say....... 'she did feel tired during those hills and they were tough'.........ha! :) To that, Tyler was like.......................
if you come in SECOND on the team (not the whole meet with the other teams) then...........
I will get you a puppy!
(TALK about SHOCKED that he said that).....................
(because Lily REALLY wants a dog..............and..............she has already moved up to fourth!)
He gave her the parameters that she has the next three (county, sectionals and state) to do it.........
SO...............
the bet is on!
I have to say, 1st (Emma, a Senior)........... 2nd (Gracie, a Sophomore) and 3rd (Bree, a Senior) are going to be TOUGH to beat because they have been outstanding this season and have placed in the top 10, overall, pretty much every meet...........but.........
I am rooting for Lily...........even though.......I do NOT want a dog! :)
Loved seeing this right before the start!
Love seeing her coming around to where we get to see her!
She FLEW to the finish line! Love that she is figuring out her groove and understanding what she needs to do!
2nd place! This team is still on fire!
