Snow Snow & More Snow

This blog is about Snow and the outdoor season. The reason that I am doing this blog is cause I dislike snow here is Wisconsin and outdoor track season has start for some people but here in Wisconsin it hasn't. I have had two Outdoor Track Meet cancelled cause of snow. The first one was The Ripon Invite on March 23rd and The First Chance Meet at UW-Oshkosh's outdoor track yesterday, Match 30th. I was to run The Steeplechase at either meet and I was ready to run Steeplechase. I really HATE the weather people of Wisconsin right now cause there some people that have 1 or 2 races under their belts and I have zero for the outdoor season. I hope this weekend meet happens cause this meet is at my home track, Carroll University and it is an alumni meet.

Pointer Last Chance Meet

I know I haven't blog in a wjile but here is the first of two blog today. This blog is about the last indoor meet of the 2013 track season that I ran. It was Pointer Last Chance Meet. I love this meet cause it is runners, jumpers and throw all trying to get into the DIII Nattys Meet and are so close to getting into. I ran the 5K which they usally don't have at this last chance meet it is usally only the 3K. The night before and the morning of the meet I was thinking to mself that I was missing something and I didn't know what it was until I got up to the meet. I was missing my black half tights and this would have been the first race that I wore half tights. I usally wear my distance running short shorts but I told two of my friends that I forgot my half tights and the say that I could wear there half tights. Great friends I have. It was either Maroon ones from La Crosse Distance Runner & Lil' Bro Tom Linner & the other guy Erik Hofferber had black one that I could wear. I told Erik that I would wear his if I couldn't find Tom Linner before I did my warm-up before my race but I did find Tom so I wore Maroon half tights and I was happy cause Maroon is one of my three favorite colors. Then after the warm-up I raced in half tights in the 5K for the first time and it felt different not to wear distance running shorts biut I loved it and in the 5K I got a 10 second pr, 19:07 and I thought it was from the wearing half tights and I might have been right. So I was tell everyone that I am going to wear half tights more in the outdoor season but I didn't know what color to wear but after the DI & DIII Natys were Arkansas (DI) & La Crosse (DIII) I found my color and it is Maroon so you will see me wearing Maroon Half Tights more in the Outdoor Season
