Jake Jumps for UVU (and runs)


Jake has participated in 2 track meets for Utah Valley University.

It has brought me such joy to be able to see him.

You see we moved away from Washington when Colby was a freshman at Central Washington University and except for when he comes to Boise Idaho in February each year I have not been able to see him compete.

To see Jake with college kids running and jumping in their uniforms and team sweats just makes my heart melt. It was a bonus to have his first meet at BYU and see young husbands and wives with a small child and one on the way just so happy being there and being a family. After the high jump got over they let their kids play around on the big mats. I had fun just sitting there watching those cute kids.

Last weekend he traveled to Pocatello, ran, jumped and even had time for a Jack in the Box meal. (He misses that place.)
