Blogger, Mr. David Hunter

Ladies-----

I don't know if you had the opportunity (or inclination) to watch any of the Olympic Trials in general and especially the high jump on Saturday, but I thought I'd pass this along to you anyway.  It was phenomenal competition.  The article I have pasted below comes from a blogger, Mr. David Hunter, who is near and dear to me and to WRA.  He is my former roommate (two years), fellow prefect, fellow co-captain of the track team, fellow Gold Medal winner senior year.  Mr. Hunter is also a prominent member on WRA's Board of Trustees.  

I hope you enjoy his blog.  The photos are amazing, as well, although I will spare you my typical analysis of those jumps.  At any rate, I know that it is a long way away from next track season, but, as you also know, I hardly ever do not have track on my brain.  I am looking forward to seeing this trio (and a whole host of other USA athletes) compete at the London Olympics later this summer. I hope you get a chance to watch them!!

Olympic Trials Time Schedule

Ladies-----

If you're not overwhelmed by chores (they do come with being at home for extended periods!!!) or a real world work schedule, you might want to catch a few of these events over the next 10 days.  These trials will determine who will represent the US at the London Olympics later this summer.  I hope you're able to watch.

Ladies,

As you can see, there are some super talented runners at the high school level. How about the girls' 800 leader?  Her 2:02 is just a second slower than the leading Div. I college woman! That's moving.  But, there are other performances that Wow us (or at least me).  Enjoy.
