More Track: Metro District Prelims

Aloha High School, Metro District Track Prelim meet: Lots of rain, but Andrew still managed to essentially tie his 800m PR with a time of 2:04.25, good enough for 4th in his heat. He hates running in the rain. He will run in the finals on Friday, and the magic iPhone says no rain and 73 degrees. Yay!

GoGo's Mongolian Grill, Hillsboro: Post-meet birthday celebration for Andrew with Grandma and Grandpa, who drove straight from their cold Idaho vacation to see the boy run and give him his birthday presents: a second Wii controller, and a Barnes and Noble gift card. He is a happy boy!
I gave him his first (of two) presents earlier at the meet: a brilliant lime-green fleece blanket, which he and assorted other Southridge track stars enjoyed between events. He gets his second present Saturday at his birthday breakfast.
