Congratulations Drew!

Here’s to my nephew for doing what no other Trusty has done before… run really fast for a long distance.  Yesterday he placed seventh in the state of Ohio in the two mile run.  Actually, in these modern times it’s called the 3200 meter run, but two miles sounds like a much more difficult distance.

The pictures are from the HG10 in regular movie mode.  I dumped the movie files into Sony Vegas and did screen captures of individual frames.  I recorded in 1920x1080p mode to get the best resolution.  After the fact I realized that the default shutter speed isn’t ideal for outdoor sporting events.  Fortunately Drew is only a freshman, so I will get several more chances at this.

Best line of the day, spoken by an unnamed second grader.  After six laps, when Drew was quite a ways behind the leader, she says, “Why doesn’t he just run faster?”
