Eight miles from my house to Liberty Park and around the park a couple times. Met Ann and Andy at the park. Perfect fall day.

I'm having a hard time thinking of anything besides the state meet this past Wednesday. My boys were so close to pulling off some truly amazing upsets but fell just a bit short. I'm so anxious for Kramer to bounce back at the Nike and Footlocker meets that I can hardly stand it.

I'm pretty interested to see if Brayden can dip down to the lower side of the 15s in another month. I think he probably can.

Kramer will be just fine... its really hard when you're at a high level to bring your A game so many times in a row, when you're facing so much good competition week in, week out. Especially if he was sick... just being 1-2% off is the difference between a state championship and being 30 seconds back at that level.
