One of my distance runners was not put on a relay team (he was sick the day before). He came to the meet and wanted to race. We tried to put together the 4 x 1 mile relay race but all the distance runners had either maxed out on races or couldn't do it... So 3 javelin throwers stood up and said they would do it. They are not distance runners!!! One of the throwers is the top 2 in State right now...
He actually threw his best mark by 10 feet 15 minutes after he finished the mile. It was fun to see these 3 jump up and do it for him.
Overall the high school kids ran well (especially in the wind we had).
