Does anyone know how far these athletes were running from?
I would much rather work with 100% heart and 75% talent than 100% talent and 75% heart!

Shade Weygandt will break that record this year! Best of luck to her!

It was a fun meet and gave us a chance to see where we were right now. Nothing like a little adrenaline and a video camera to find out what you've got.

It was obvious at the meet that 90% of the athletes will go much, much higher this indoor season. It was a great kick off, and i cant wait to see how everyone does this season!
The greater the challenge, the more glorious the triumph

We were on a really fast runway about 120 ft long. I believe most people went from their long runs... about 115 feet.
