Well, it's finally here. The week we've been looking forward to for over two and a half months. With 18 PRs compiled this past week at the Northshore District Meet, we are peaking just at the right time! Congrats to all of you on a job well done on Thursday. Some big PRs to note were Laura's 14 sec. & Denisse's 11 sec. PR in the 800m, Nate's league qualifying PR of 4:36 and Aleah's 2nd sub 6:00 min. 1600m this year with a 5:53, and finally all 4 of the 3200m runners of Dean, Dan, Wyland & Angie who combined to take a total of 1:59 off of their respective 3200m times, amazing. We also have to give shout out to Chris Arneson for winning the 800m on Thursday in his season debut by running 1:59 in a dominant 5 sec. wire-to-wire victory.
Heading into this championship week, I'd like to say three things. #1.) I'd like to congratulate Nathan Conrad on reaching his goal of qualifying in both the 1600m & 3200m at the League Championships this week. #2.) I was moved this past Friday at practice when Katherine pointed out that our "D-Crew" almost out numbered the entire rest of the team at turn out. The dedication that you all have to see through your season and to chase down your goals is astounding and admirable. #3.) Coach Forrest and I chatted after our run on Saturday and both talked about how much you guys motivate us to be our best and that your energy is contagious to the point where we are both pushing ourselves to get back into shape. So thank you! Don't forget the little things, stay focused and have a great week.
