  How was Bob Schul visit? Did he bring his video? haha. Good stuff! WLS grad Kevin Conkel (spelling?) came down to Bob's a handful of times when in HS.

  I suppose you can have an extension - I'll just have to find out if you'll make it or not when I'm at the meet.
  
  The Bob Schul visit was great with the exception of we couldn't get the dvd player to play the last 2 laps of his Olympic race. My distance girls loved him. I also went to hear him speak at a veteran's dinner in Bellefontaine later in the evening. Kevin ran for WLS before I moved back home. Earl Zilles also ran for Bob in Europe. I think he was used a rabbit. Bob said Earl would only eat at McDonald's when they were over there. I told him not to tell my girls that. Hope to see you Friday. The weather doesn't look very promising right now.

  I didn't know about Earl running for Bob. The Mcd's makes sense, if not use to the European foods. I heard Usain Bolt only ate Chicken nuggets while at the Olympics. haha!
  
  Couldn't play the final two laps......that totally stinks. Best part of the race!

  Don't know about during the actual Olympics but Bolt is a big sweet potato eater. Jr. swears by sweet potatoes. I posted race on my facebook page so the Big Orange could see it.

  Hey Orange! If I remember correctly, you fellas don't cancel meets because of rain?
  
  I can see it happening, somebody at Graham will hear one little rumble of thunder and cancel the meet.

  Grats to Orange jr! Heck of a day at Graham. Nice run by Alyssa Strickland also. I didn't look it up, was she #3 on the XC team this past season?
  
  Quite a distance squad for the WLS lady Big Orange!
• orangechik00

  Thanks, said. Jr. worked hard in the off season and did some strength training. She actually has a kick this year - which I'm still trying to figure out where that came from. Alyssa started out as our #5 in XC and was our #3 at state running a 19:59. Were you at the meet and I missed you? It was the warmest meet we've been to all year. The county meet is at Graham a week from Tuesday and I'm sure you know District is there, too.

  The girls distance races are going to be tough at MU tomorrow.
