Dash In The Dark

Our first interscholastic meet is today!  We are headed to Oakfield-Alabama High School for the "Dash In The Dark".  This is a fun meet that is different than all of the other meets we do during the season.  First, it is a relay race, with each team consisting of three runners.  Second, each leg is only two miles, rather than the usual 5K distance that we cover.  Finally, the "Gold" races (the top three relay teams from each school) are run under the lights around the school grounds - very exciting atmosphere.

Here is the schedule for this evening:

6:00pm - Girls Blue Race
7:05pm - Boys Blue Race
8:10pm - Girls Gold Race
9:05pm - Boys Gold Race

There are reportedly 26 teams entered in the meet; that should make for some exciting races!

If you plan on attending, here are Google Map directions from Schroeder to the meet:
