Notes
Shakeout on the treadmill at Dad's. I planned on doing at least 20 minutes today but after spending 6 hours in the rain at the league meet at SHS, I felt like I should just loosen up the legs and call it a day. I felt really good doing this and expected to feel stiff and tired from the meet. I basically just warmed up and called it, I probably only sweat for 3-4 minutes.
Great showing by the team today to win the meet when we really should have lost on paper and based on our opponents' potential. 2nd in the 4x800 by Anthony, Sajid, Will, and Owen, 3-5-6 in the 2 mile by Giuseppe, Francesco, and Havish, 2-6 in the mile by Noah and Chris (very tactical, 69-71-72-63 for Noah), 2-3 in the 400H by Max and Finn (huge day for them), 2-3-6 in the 800 for Adam, Bodhi, and Owen, 4th in the 400 for Sam, and 2nd in the 4x400 by Noah, Sam, Finn, and Bodhi. Really good double for Owen to score twice, great execution in the mile and 800, we punched way above our weight in the 400H, and Sam ran strong in the 2nd heat to break into the scoring. With Matt pulling his hamstring in the 100 prelim and the rain all day, we could easily have been demoralized but the team kept showing up and kept us in the mix early before we poured it on late in the running events. Algonquin really didn't show up well for this, and that certainly helped us too. Keith winning the 100 and 200 was pretty awesome. He's definitely one to give himself excuses but he crushed it today.
