Golden Eagles –
Thank you to all of you who helped with “El-Chepo” it was a lot of fun. Thank you for helping with this fundraiser. It really makes our jobs as coaches so much easier when we have the help like we had yesterday. On Friday night we participated in a new meet the Utah Distance Challenge at the Olympic Oval. This was a fun meet and a great format. It was great to see so many of you participate in this meet, have fun, work hard, and set some PR’s for this season. Thanks also to those who came and offered their support at this meet. Brigette Harris ran a personal best 6:13 in the mile. Jensen Williams placed 5th in the 400, Bobbe Graham jumped in and ran her first 400 of the season, Christine Heyn also joined them in the 400. Christine was also one of the many who decided to jump into a race for a workout running the 800 meters along with Brigette Harris and Jensen Williams (all three placed in our top 10 for indoor). The Sunglasses ladies returned to set our indoor record in the 3200 meters. Thanks to all the ladies who ran in this meet and took advantage of this training opportunity.
On the boys side several of you also took advantage of this training opportunity running in a couple of races for workout part of it. Isaac Faux and Paxton Patey set new PR’s in both the mile. Moving to our #2 & #3 all time Indoor marks with great times of 4:36 & 4:41 respectively. Nate Vance, Jonah Hadlock, and Josh Watson all made their indoor debuts in the mile. Isaac and Paxton joined Lance Merrell in the 800 meters all setting our top 3 indoor all time marks. With Isaac running a 2:06, Lance 2:08, Paxton 2:09 respectively. Jonah Hadlock (2:15), Kevin Murirbook (2:18), and Nate Vance (2:22) rounded out our 800 meter crew. Kevin Muirbook ran his best mark of the season in the 400 meters (55.19) moving up to our #3 indoor mark with that race. Isaac, Paxton, Josh, & Nate all ran for the workout mileage in the 3200 meters all placing in our top 5 indoor marks. Thank you boys, thank you.
