State Track Meet Results

Well it was a rainy night but it ended well. The rain poured down for awhile and we had about an hour delay but once the storm passed it was fine. No wind just wet.

Jess won the 400 with a track record time of 58.2. She won the 200 and she came from behind in dramatic fashion to get 1st in the Sprint Med. They were in a distant 6th place when she got the baton. She caught all but one in the last stretch and then pushed passed the last girl at the finish line. It was really something.

The 4x800 didn't do that well. The times were ok but not good enough. Jess was in 5th by a long, long ways when she got it. She got them to 4th. I don't think that event will qualify and that is good. I told her coach I didn't want Jess to run it at state if they make it. It is right before the 400.

So she is going to state in 3 events. The 200, 400 and Sprint Med relay. It is kind of cool that she made it to state in the 200. She has only run it twice in her life. Last night was the second time.

She runs at State Thursday. I am not sure of the times of everything but I know the 400 is around 7:30 PM and the 200 prelims are around 6:30.

Ok, I will keep you posted as I know more.
