Thinking of doing the mile and/or 2 mile or vice versa...Shay and Megan, what about you?
I was thinking of jumping in the mile. my trainings been a little off lately, so i'm still not 100% sure
Don't worry, my training has been off, too...just happy I'm not injured anymore...finally feeling good, so if anything, I'll just use the Meet as training...
I am thinking maybe 800 and mile or 3200.. Not sure yet.. The 1500 last time had the smallest number of people with just one heat but the 800 and 3000 had several heats.. Maybe with one heat it's a little more intimidating.. But you speedsters will be totally fine with whatever you do!!
I'll do the mile and maybe the 800. Marvin and Rob Y, are you two in?
Hah, no maybes on the site. But I'm a maybe to come out and cheer.
late class downtown makes me unable to go now :( good luck everyone! can't wait to see results!
I would like to come and cheer if I can get out of work early. Is there a particular meet up place for cheerers?
Is anyone planning to get up there before 7pm who can try to hold a spot on the bleachers on the side of the track? Might be nice to have somewhere to all sit and keep our stuff together.. Maybe first person to get there, try to hold a spot?
I'm trying to get there around 6:30/6:45, so I'll hold a spot or look if anyone else from the team got there before me.
Megan/Alexis: Good idea, I'll be there by then too. Luke: No shower room. Marvin: Bummer! There's always 2/24 and 3/18.
If I can come to cheer it will be later, have a friend in from Ghana,
So sorry guys can't make it to cheer, just woke up late after an overnight shift and I really have to get a good gym workout in, hopefully someday I can run these track meets with you all. Have a great time, share your results later!!! Go Whippets!!

Luke, glad you made it home safely! Everyone felt horrible when we realized we mistakenly left you at the turnstile when we were running for the subway! So sorry!
