Here we are, back in Central Oregon after a rainy trip to Eugene. OK it didn't rain the whole time, but as soon as the announcer at Hayward Field said: "and now the national anthem", the clouds opened up, and it was pouring for a good 1/2 hour. So it made for a wet day, since we had General admission seats, we didn't get under the roof, where the reserved seats are, so we got wet. Our seats would have been perfect, but there was a big TV tower between us and the finish line. The key is to arrive early if you have General admission, and we were not as early as we could have been.
We saw Gatlin and Powell, both going under 10 seconds in the 100 meters, and a lightning fast 400 meters run in under 45 seconds! Woah. 2 mile in 8 minutes and 10 seconds! dang.
This meet was really cool, if you ever get a chance, you must go. I was taking all kinds of photos, so check out my
slideshow.
