Thalia running track...and throwing discus!

Living in Bangkok, Thalia started running track.  I actually don't know what made her decide to do this...I need to ask.  Anyway, she ran track and was on the track team. 

In January, they moved to London...new school...new friends...new climate...new everything.  She started running track, did the hurdles, threw the discus.  Her second time throwing the discus, she almost beat the school record.  Recently she was in a track meet and won the silver medal in the 100 meter sprint!  In discus, she won a gold medal!

Today, she traveled by train to Birmingham for another track meet, the Nationals Track Meet.  All the gold medalists from all over Europe traveled to Birmingham for this. Thalia was just throwing the discus as part of the London National Team...and...
How amazing is that?  Thalia!  I'm so proud of you!!!
