## Caption

While I’ve got some time recovering from my shoulder injury, I’ve started going over some of the photos that I shot over the last few seasons.
:

I hope that I can post at least one a day until the end of the year, but we’ll see how long this lasts…
:
:
First shot is of @arizonatrack shot putter @jordangeistofficial bumping fists with @rcrouser during the introductions before the shot put finals at #tracktrials21.
:
:
Crouser would go on to win the competition with a new world record of 76-8.25/23.37m, while Geist finished seventh with a season best 68-3/20.80m.
:
:
I’ve always loved the camaraderie between the shot putters before, during & after competition, which is why I’ve always relished the opportunity to work meets ringside.
