Hadn't seen, but Shewaye Johnson went 5:01 in the mile!
She'll need to go at least 5 seconds lower to escape that regional. 4:50 might not make it.
The 1600 was actually slow. And pathetically run. 21 5 minute milers in the same heat. They had a false start, and Sophia Nguyen got her face smashed, and then the starter called everybody back and started yelling at them. Our girl, who ran a 4:58 at Rice, finished in last with a 5:18. She was pretty shaken up by it all, but she regrouped and ran a 5:02 a few hours later in the DMR. They can run 50 heats of 100 meters, and half the lanes are empty in the relay heats, but they cram 2 dozen elite runners into the same race for the mile. Last time I checked, all events count the same.
Anyway, time to hit the training for district, and to cram in some Officials for the schools that have been paying attention.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough
