2 weeks from today, the USA will walk into Tokyo and show the world that weāre the best at every sport imaginable. Thereās still time to qualify for the track sports so I figured weād finalize that tomorrow. The races that will take place tomorrow are the following:
š¦ 4 x 100 relay
š¦ 4 x 200 relay
š¦ 4 x 400 relay
š¦ individual mile run
There will be no drug testing protocols, so get your doping in as soon as possible. We will meet in the iron lion parking lot and do a warm up run to the track. HC below!!

We work really hard in the gloom to better ourselves physically and mentally on a daily basis. Ā Habits donāt form over night, it takes time.
to have a positive mental attitude day in and day out is also something that doesnāt happen overnight, it needs practice. Ā So focus on trying to have a positive attitude and over time it will become a habit as well. Ā It will help you personally and professionally.
silent intentions.

That was a blast. Ā Much respect to track athletes. Ā I think we all can say that running a 400 as fast as possible is no joke! Ā Merlot was almost spilled by many of us.
winners of the races…
4×400:Ā lane 3, time: 4:50. Ā For comparison purposes, the ihsa record is 3:13, world record is 2:54!
4×200: Ā lane 1: time: 2:09, ihsa record is 1:26, world record is 1:18!
4×100: Ā lane 3: time: 1:00, ihsa record is 40.86, world record is 36.84
i believe Glenn won the mile with a sub 6 minute jobber, but as you can imagine, I wasnāt too close behind him.
a couple of notes on the HIMs that came out today:
Daisy is really fast, he reminded me of the bad guy robot in terminator 2
Glenn is a beast. Ā He joined us after doing EC which consisted of running 12 400 meter dashes!
It was maybe the first time I posted with poutine and bush push. Ā If not the first, the first time we conversed. Ā these are some fine dudes and hope to see you guys at Iron Lion again.
kobayashi showed up in an orange convertible Lotus, just saying.
The standard iron lion men of nosejob, nice guy, Sputnik, and chain link. Ā I appreciate the support and wonderful conversation at coffee.
happy birthday to ghost pepper. Ā Solid double tap today with your VQ at early Iron Lion
great conversation with catfish on the mosey over to the track, great seeing you again and way to work today!
sulley…great seeing you out there doing a little mash today. Ā The lion is not the same without you, get back soon!
