3 x Top 3

The Boys made the trip to the Brighton Relays a successful one last night. After the hurdlers (many of them running the wrong way) got off the track, it was time for the 4x1600m. Nate got things off to a good start, running a PR of 5:20. Nico ran 4:54 to put the team solidly in 3rd. Alex broke the 6-minute barrier in a big way, running 5:47 (no way was he going to allow a girl to unlap us), and AJ blazed thru the final 400 in 74 to finish in 5:32.
Splits:

Nate	74	2:33	3:57	5:20
Nico	72	2:27	3:43	4:54
Alex	77	2:47	4:18	5:47
AJ	81	2:50	4:18	5:32

The Distance Medley Relay team also did well, grabbing 2nd place behind Brighton, as their strong anchor was too much for Nate, despite his 2nd PR in the mile in as many hours. Here are the splits:
Nico 69 2:21 3:32
Stewey 54
Karl 67 2:17
Nate 74 2:32 3:55 5:15

And in the final real event, the 4x800, the boys locked up 3rd place early, in large part to guest Distance Man, Ryan Vanzo, running a very strong leadoff leg, allowing Nico to coast thru the anchor leg. Splits:
Vanzo 66.9 2:11.3
AJ 66.7 2:16.9
JP 78.9 2:39.6
Nico 66.3 2:20.9

Nico also tossed in a 2:08.5 as the anchor of the Sprint Medley.
