Still sprinting ...

We are slowly transitioning into summer mode. Most of the cross country/distance guys are taking their obligitory time off heading into finals week.

There are still several guys and ladies who will be racing at Icahn Stadium on Saturday -- three young speedsters in the 1500, a bunch of diehards in the 5000 and four mid-distance ladies in the 1500 and 800.

But perhaps the most dedicated group of athletes still going -- in terms of daily, off-campus practices -- would have to be the men's sprint crew. These guys are still going after it -- with the goal of a run at the SR in the 4x100 relay. That relay requires a lot of practice.

So they are out there now in the blazing sun with Coach Horton.

Here's hoping we can get it done ...

More details on who is running what and when at Icahn later in the week.

Special programming note: Tonight is the annual Jerkies -- the culmination of another great year of Wednesday night Jerk Squad sessions. Should be interesting?
