Both Adam and Emily are now members of the Balmain Little Athletics which meet every Saturday morning (8.30am, urg but at least it is warmer now).
Emily does tiny tots which is lots of games to prepare for athletics (or Olympics as we like to call it) - lots of throwing, jumping and some running.


Adam is in the under-6 group and they take it VERY seriously. Every week, every race is timed and distances measured, with the wining child in each race being double timed to verify the win!!

As you can see from this picture, Adam also takes it quite seriously. Having said, that we are quite happy as we have decided that Adam is the next Usain Bolt, but, you know, not black or Jamaican. He can do the 100 metres in 20 seconds.

The great thing about athletics, apart from the fact that the kids love it (and it tires them out!), the last two weeks have been gloriously sunny.
