Track-Sophomore

Bailey had a great track season! She focused a lot more on having fun and stressing out less. It helped her a lot!

The first meet was in Twin Falls. Bailey got off to a great start!
Twin Falls:
800m: 2:41 (1st place)
1600m: 6:03 (2nd place)
4X400m: 4:42 (3rd place)

I love that these two are best friends! They compliment each other perfectly!
Bonneville Invite:
1600m: 5:51 (5th place) *PR
They ran the mile first, so she finally got to run it on fresh legs! Helped her get a PR!
800m: 2:42 (1st place)
4X400m: 4:54 (4th place)
It was freezing, so I didn't get any pictures.

Bonneville canceled a meet at the beginning of the season, so Bailey had an extra one she could run. She decided to do the Rigby JV meet. She wanted to try an open 400m.
400m: 65 (2nd place)
1600m: 6:03 (1st place)
4X400m: 4:45 (1st place)


Running the 1600m.
 Later in the week she ran the real Rigby Invitational.
Rigby Invitational:
400m: 64.6
1600m: 5:58
I'm not sure what her places were, because they messed them up on athletic.net. They have her down for a 'no time' in the mile.

starting the 1600m.
Bailey and Mason!
Tiger/Griz:
400m: 65 (18th place)
1600m: 5:57 (25th place)
800m: 2:42 (28th place)
 They didn't end up running the 4X400m relay because one of their teammates was injured and the alternate left the meet early. The girls were SO mad! Bailey decided she was done running the 4X400 after this meet. They changed the team every week, and it started to become a joke. She talked to the girls who were actually committed, and they decided to do the 4X800m relay instead. Bonneville has never had a team for this before. They thought if they ran it once, they would set a school record. :)

1600m 
800m 
Bailey, Mason, The Bee (Preston), Landen, Ezri, Liz
HCC:
4X800m relay: 10:49 (set school record)
800m: 2:41 (5th place)
400m: 66 (13th place)
3200m: 13:25 (5th place) 
She had never run the 3200m, and since it was at the end of the meet and wouldn't effect her other races, she decided to give it a try. She said it was boring, but she wants to try it next year because she knows she'll do a lot better with fresh legs.

Claire, Hannah, Sam, and Bailey are Bonneville's first 4X800m relay team.
Districts:
4X800m Relay: 10:30 (3rd place) 
They dropped 19 seconds off their time, and broke their own school record!
400m: 65 (12th place)
1600m (5:49) (8th place)*PR
800m: 2:36 (9th place)
Bailey ran great at Districts! She had a PR in the mile, and reached her season goal to get into the 5:40s. She got a season best time in the 800m, and her split in the 4X800m relay was the fastest 800 she's ever run (2:34). It was a great way for her to end the season!

School record holders!

Bailey wanted to PR in the mile at Districts, and to do that, she knew she needed to go out hard. She led the pack for 2 laps, and ended up with the time she wanted. She likes to go out hard and then try to hold on for as long as she can.  Her coach has discouraged that a little bit, but she always ends up with her best times when she does it, so I'm glad she decided to just run how she feels comfortable. It paid off for her! 

Our boy's 4X800m relay team made it to the state meet. Bailey wanted to go watch Mason, so me and her went to Boise for the weekend. It was a fun meet to watch. So much crazy talent all in one place!

Landen, JD, Mason, and Riley-The boys bleached their hair for state. JD took it one step farther and went green. So funny!
Bailey and Blondie!
I've loved watching all these kids run this season! I'm always sad when the season is over. Now the half marathon training begins!
