this week's track summary

Thursday was our home meet at Edmonds Stadium.  Kelsey ran the 800m for the first time this season.  She was not the happiest with her time. (I thought she did fine) 
Michael also ran the 800m for the first time this season.  He liked how he did.  He also ran the mile.  The race included three Terrace boys.  One of which, is Michael's best friend, Ben. (on Michael's left in the picture) The two of them have challenged each other all season.  Most of the time, one will drop his time, then the other will drop it the next time.  It has been a healthy and great competition for them.  This week was Ben's turn to win and he took first place! 
Saturday was the Shoreline Invitational, an all boys meet.  Michael was able to run in the two mile.  It was good competition from all over the state, and we were hoping for a PR.  But the SAT test this morning had just drained him mentally.  For those that don't know-running is a very mental sport!  I was proud of him for being there.

For those of you who are ready for me to change my blog topic, don't worry, there are only two weeks left of track!
