The conference meet was an adventure. Jess was scheduled for 4 events. The long jump, the open 400, the sprint medley relay and the 4x400 relay. It was nice but windy conditions.
The result of the day:
4th or 5th in the longjump
Conference Champ in the open 400
Conference Champ in the Sprint Medley Relay
Conference Champ in the 4x400 Relay.
4 events, 3 gold medals. I think the nerves were getting the best of her for awhile, she kept saying she was tired and had a few tears but she did well. The last event was the 4x400 and one of the girls that really helped her this year was a girl named Brittney and she is a senior. It was her last event ever because she didn't qualify for state. She told Jess she really wanted a gold at conference. Jess said she didn't know if she had anything left but would try her best. They won gold and the fairy tale season continued.
Jess runs at state on Thursday. It should be perfect weather. She has a good shot of breaking her school record.
Drew has been working hard at baseball practice. He has a game tonight. I will get some pics to post of his game.
