Michael had another track meet on Tuesday and the boys team won and Michael placed first in shuttles and second in both the 75 high and 200 low hurdles. This afternoon he had another meet closer to home. This one was all team events. Michael’s shuttle team won and Michael ran the 4×4 for the first time and his team won that too. The 4×4 is a team of four that run a lap (1/4 mile) each. Michael’s coach said that he broke a school record and might move him over to the 4×4 for the next meet. He was very fast. He is able to run the mile in 5 min 45 sec. Holy cow!
You go, Michael! You must take after your Aunt Robin with the track (ha, ha) . She did it for 1 year in Junior High. congratulations.
Go Michael!!! Can’t wait to see you run here.
Nice going Michael …. Keep up the good work!
Michael,
Google ROGER BANNISTER. He is the Englishman who broke the Four Minute Mile in 1954. (when I was your age) You will find a lot of information on his career as a runner. (not always successful) If you run in England you’ll probably hear much about him and they will be impressed of your knowledge.
