Track & Field

Claire ran track this year for her school. It was a blast to watch her run and it was fun to go the meets as a family. Her coach was Mr. Tindall, which was cool since we went to school with his boys. Needless to say, he was happy to have a Norris on his track team!
Here are the races Claire ran and her personal best times:
  • 100m -- 13.10 (2nd all-time school record for both 7th and 8th grade)
  • 200m -- 28.41 (6th all-time school record for both 7th and 8th grade)
  • 4x100m Relay -- 53.61 (3rd all-time school record for both 7th and 8th grade)
In Finals she ran against the best of 16 schools. Here are her placings:
  • 100m -- 2nd Place
  • 200m -- 4th Place
  • 4x100m Relay -- 1st Place!
    Here is Claire in the finals running the 200m
