Way to go - sounds like you could have demolished your 400m time even more if it were not for the headwind. Having run some races in bad wind before, I know what it takes out of you.

Congrats on your soccer games Benjamin - sounds like you have a good team. Alexander plays soccer too, he has been a lead scorer in the competitive league but now just plays off and on in the recreational league when he has time

Sasha - Would Benjamin be interested in being on the Bantam boys team training for the Nationals? Last year Alexanders team won the National championship, but some of the kids moved up because of age to the midget division so we are short of kids so far, but there are still some great runners like Ely, Alexander and the Blackburns in Bantam. The National championship is in Kansas in early December. I think I asked you about this before and you said it probably wasnt feasible because of time and money issues. If interested let me know and Ill tell the coaches. I know at Alta you said too that Benjamin is only going to run in a few races when he feels like it so again maybe this isnt something he would be interested in. Just wondering. Thanks

From Sasha Pachev on Wed, Sep 12, 2007 at 22:33:28

Michael - if it was local, we would definitely be interested. Kansas - well, not too far away, a possibility, but we have to think about it.

From Michael on Thu, Sep 13, 2007 at 23:01:09

OK let me know later when you have decided. I checked the National Championship is Saturday Dec 8 in Lawrence Kansas. It is a ways to go but Alexander had alot of fun last year but to get there you have to run in the state and regional. Benjamin would make a good addition to the team and the coaches are interested in having him.

Hey - goodluck at TOU!
