Guerin Prep

Conference Preview

It was another beautiful day for a meet.  However, I think this course ranks up there with the top 3 most confusing courses!  It was a nice spectator-friendly course, for sure, but a little confusing for some of the runners (thankfully, not ours!).  Since this was more like a "practice" conference meet, there were no awards, which is too bad because we may have earned a few!  Enjoy!

This was the first time we've ever run at this course.

Jogging the course pre-competition.

Girls Race:

Tamron has consistently been finishing in the top half at each race.  Today she was 22nd out of 57, completing the course in 24:35, one second faster than last weekend's race.  She was one of only four runners on our team that cut their time today.  (I think the rest of the team hit a mid-week slump!!)

Claudia crossed the finish line in 27:45.  This was a little slower than last Saturday, but she is still consistently out-performing herself in a significant way compared to last year.  Way to go!

Boys Race:

An interesting group of fellows!!!!

Jaylin finished in 11th place overall.  His time was 18:07.  This is a PR for this year, cutting 23 seconds off of his time from Saturday.  Woo hoo!!!

Mitch had a strong kick at the end, finishing in 12th with a time of 18:17.  Great effort!

Kobe was 3rd for the team, finishing in 24th place overall, with a time of 19:01.  You always look like you're smiling, Kobe!

Look at that grit and determination!  Jose moved up to finish 4th for the team, finishing in 26th place in 19:04, just 3 seconds behind Kobe.  Jose cut 17 seconds off of his time from Saturday.  Superb!!

In spite of not feeling his best today, David kept his spot in the the top 5, finishing behind Jose in 27th place with a time of 19:16.

James looks determined as he sprints toward the finish line, crossing it in  20:55.

Steven was close behind James, finishing in 21:01.

Julio pushed through hip pain to complete the course in 21:23.

Daniel pushed hard at the end to finish his race in 27:32.

Traivon and Xavier stuck it out together today for the whole race.

 Traivon finished in 28:43...

...and so did Xavier!  (Jaylin---notice the hand---was instrumental in ordering Xavier to catch up to Traivon at the finish line...and he did!)

Next meet is Friday 

at Riverside-Brookfield!
