~:[CH6 - Day 54]:~ Until the End, Together
Today was a hectic day, running around trying to get everything ready for today's kickoff event, the Black & Gold Meet. We started running an inter-squad meet to get us used to running a meet and also adding a little competitive fun. It was impressive to see all the athletes with the packed 1600m to the multiple heats of sprint events. While the winds kicked up, we still had a number of impressive times that leave you wondering, just how good could this team be. The distance squad had its own challenge as the winning team would celebrate with boba. Coming down to the 3200m, it was a narrow 36-41 victory for the gold team, but in the end, we were all winners. By the tail end of cleanup, we still had a good majority of our squad around and a number of that group also had dinner together. One of the things I noticed about this group that I've enjoyed is that they stick around to the end, help out to clean without complaining, and spend additional time together beyond just time within the sport, which is important. I was exhausted, but couldn't imagine a better way to spend my night unwinding from a busy day. Aside from the times we had today, today is going to be a great season just because of the athletes we have, as they stay together until the very end.
