Sunday 8/2
USATF Junior Olympic Championships
8th Place 4X400m Finals in 3:20.18 (47.92 split)
notes: One of our relay legs bailed on us and another acted like a 6 year old and jogged the race. It is unfortunate because when you see athletes as naturally gifted as some of my teamates just give up and pout, you really can tell that in 2 years they won’t still be in the game depite a world of opportunity ahead of them.
My High School Track Career has officially ended and its a bit of a strange feeling. I feel like I have acomplished quite a bit in these four years. I have gone from a 56 second split my freshman year to spliting 47 this year. My horizions have expanded to include the 800m which will likely become my main event in college. I am having my wisdom teeth removed this morning and will take two weeks of down time before training begins anew. Below is a quick summary of my pr’s for the year: (all times fat)
55m: 6.77
60m: 7.29
100m: 11.23w
200m: 22.32w and 22.45
400m: 49.05 (47.59 relay)
800m: 1:53.99
Congratulations on some very nice work!
You have had a super senior year and deserving of some down time; congrats. on a job well done.
