OVERALL: Thank you! THIS is the kind of night and effort and aftermath that makes coaching so much fun :) You all took it seriously. You all prepared. You pushed. You helped each other to run some excellent times, and you seemed to have a lot of fun in doing it. The pizza and Mafi hangout session afterwards were the icing on the cake -- or the toppings on the 'za (or something like that!) The championship racing starts this week and you are ALL ready to rip it!

**Orlo had theater conflicts on Saturday night, so he and Erik met for the time trial at 9am on Saturday morning. We targeted a 6:20/12:40 goal but fell slightly behind on lap two (1:40). A steady effort was made to catch back up over three (1:37.1) and four (1:33.8) for a 1600m time of 6:26. And from there, the Orlo train kept right on rollin'. Tucked in a step or two behind for laps five (1:33.1), six (1:32.4), and seven (1:31.3), Orlo was finally able to really throw it down when Erik got out of his way and stepped off the track with a lap to go. The final lap was 1:11.9 and Orlo's closing 1600m 5:49!
Great work again to ALL and thanks for putting in the extra efforts on a very busy Friday & Saturday!
