It bores me to tears, so glad my sons are out for track.

as a former track-parent of four I can say that track is not, by any means, a riveting sport. As a matter of fact, track is like watching paint dry without the plot.

In retrospect, I should have loaded the food baskets with a thermos of cool adult beverage for each meet.

Ouch! I was in track all the way through college-and love it. In between races you can walk around and talk to people, so you are at least not stuck in your seat for hours.

I was a sprinter so, to me, those races can be very exciting. To each his own, I guess.
