A very fun weekend. (or a lot of T&A)

Track and Athletes

Friday was a nice start to the weekend. It started with the Hamline elite meet invitational. As mentioned in a previous post one of my high jumpers qualified for this meet. There were twelve girls entered and she would have of course been the twelfth seed with a 5'3" entry. She ended up jumping 5'2" which is off her best, but still very good since the heights are new to her. She doesn't yet have the consistency to jump at her best every time. A big part of it was the weather. It was a little windy, but mostly it had become a little cold and that can play into it. But even with her jump she still managed to place 5th. A very nice job for a girl who only a month ago was hoping to get to 5 feet.

Another cool feature to this event is that it's a good snapshot as to what to expect at state if you get there. There are a few more jumpers that weren't at the meet for one reason or another but the state meet is split into two classes. So you really do end up with a similar field although one could argue the very best jumpers are split and maybe the state meet is easier than this one to get a decent place.

Talent & Absence there of.

The next part of the weekend was a nice Karaoke party at Fifi's place. She lives in a high rise community and they had a nice event. She invited me to attend since she knows I enjoy singing a little. It was a little different crowd then I'm used to, older so the song choice was a little subdued. But still I had a blast, and I wasn't as terribly rusty as I thought I'd be. I also met some very nice community members that Fifi lives with.

Track Again

Saturday was seemingly a repeat of Friday. Hamline had a day two which was a relay day. We had two girl relays entered and two boys entered. Even though I am the high jump coach and my entrant was done Friday, I am still heavily involved and interested in the outcome for our team, so I went along. We had a great day with all teams making great improvements and all placing well.

The other T&A

Saturday was Fifi's b'day celebration and so I headed over for that. It was a very nice party, and I was able to see people I hadn't seen in a very long time. Plus Fifi showed everyone her ass and boobs. No one knows why, but she did it repeatedly. Tequila??
