National Track Meet

Thursday: I watched Brian compete in the sprint relay! They were just shy of making it to finals!

Friday: Today, he ran in the mile relay ...

Getting ready ...

The last leg ...

They placed 4th out of their heat ... AND MADE IT TO FINALS!!!

Saturday: Finals started at 5PM ... But sadly, Bryan was asked to watch a couple of boys for some cottage parents!! I didn't want to go watch it w/o him, so I waited for him to get off! We left the ranch around 8PM ... just in time to watch the 5000M run, women's and men!! About the time the girls mile relay started to warm up ... Brian called Aunt Marilyn and told him that he would not be running in the mile relay! WHAT?!

Well, the ASU girls placed 2nd in the mile relay and 2nd as a team! It was amazing! They ran so good!!

The ASU guys placed 4th.

We talked to Brian after the race. Coach Reeds came up to him and said that Alpine was running. So Brian figured that he was running instead of someone else. Then Brian asked who all was running ... the coach named four guys ... Brian was not one of them! Brian just walked off!

Brian has been running all year on the mile relay ... he is not hurt ... Alpine ran a heptathlon (or whatever it's called, 8 events), so he had already ran a lot the past three days!!

Obviously no one is happy about this! We will see how things pan out!

Afterwards, we went to Chili's ... so Bryan could eat. Well, I got cajun chicken pasta .... I am going to go out on a limb and say the baby does not like it. Walking back to the car, we had to make a pit stop! I wanted Bryan to make a sign that said I'm not Drunk, Just Pregnant!
