Shelley Quade Might Need Some Hill Sprints

Ladies:

I was just checking up on the Midwest Conference and to my astonishment have discovered that the distance crew is supremely lacking in its speed workouts this year, it seems. Mr. Eckburg may want to check his stat sheets and rein in his happiness over Phish's reunion. It may be distracting his coaching.

In the 400 m dash, a certain tenacious Joanna Johnson is breaking records and finishing the distance in under a minute. Seconds behind her, a pack of Beloiters.
And then. http://www.midwestconference.org/events/display.asp?sp=WIT&e=ALL&k=location&d=BEL&s=2008&desc=Beloit

That's right. Ms. Van Galder herself, minutes later with a time of 5:36.75, comes in. Did Shelley stop to stretch after 100 meters? Did some hot guy on the sidelines distract her? Is Coach Eckburg taking everyone to secret concerts instead of to Gamebird, as he has reported to me?

I'll check back to see the results of the outdoor season soon. I hope to see some improvement by Shelley. Maybe she'll make the 400m in 4:00. That would be a start.

Best of luck to you!
Marta
