National Senior Games... Wednesday

On Wednesday morning Adolph was supposed to do the long jump at 7:00 in the morning.  We got there around 6:00 and it was raining and storming.  Adolph was able to do his first jump but then all the events were called off because of the storms.  Everyone was sent under the bleachers to wait out the storm.  We kept thinking they would be able to start back up but every time another strike of lightening would occur.  Finally, around 10:30 Adolph was finally about to finish the long jump.  As you can tell by the photos of everyone holding umbrellas it was still raining but not lightening thank goodness!!!  Adolph ended up finishing fourth in his age group for the long jump.




Adolph's second event for the day was the shot put.  Luckily, it was later in the day so he had time to relax a little bit after fighting the rain earlier that day.  He ended up getting fourth place in this event.
