This was Bailey's first year in track, and she loved it! She had a great season! She ran the 800 meters and the 1600 meters.
Their first meet was against Sandcreek. She had no idea what to expect or how to run her races. We didn't really give her any advice other than to just have fun and get a feel for those distances.
RMMS vs. Sandcreek:
800 meters- 2:57.5
1600 meters- 6:42
Stretching
Lining up for the 800 Meters.
The second meet was against Rigby and Eagle Rock. Now that she had one meet under her belt, she knew what to expect and the jitters were gone. Holy smokes she did awesome! She dropped 7 seconds off her 800 meter time! She ran the mile in the wind and pouring rain, and still got the same time as the week before. She won both of her races.
RMMS vs, Rigby and Eagle Rock:
800 meters- 249.8
1600 meters- 6:42
We missed her third meet. It was against Sugar and Mountain View. She made big drops in her times again. Almost 3 seconds off her 800 meter time, and 10 seconds off her 1600 meters. She got second in both races.
RMMS vs. Sugar and Mountain View:
800 meters- 2:47
1600 meters- 6:32
The next meet was against Mountain View, Madison, and Eagle Rock. She got PRs in both races again. She won the 800 meters, and got second in the 1600 meters.
800 meters- 2:46.2
1600 meters- 6:30
Fighting for a win in the 800 meters.
The last meet was a 2 day conference meet. She ran the 1600 meters the first day, and the 800 meters the second day. She improved another 10 seconds in the mile and got 7th at conference. We were wishing the season was a couple weeks longer. She was improving her times every meet, and she was within range of the 800 meter school record. We knew she could get it if she had 2 more weeks. Well guess what?!? She decided to get it anyways!!! She ran an AWESOME race and just totally went for it. She dropped over 3 seconds and got the record. She got 3rd in conference.
Conference:
1600 meters- 6:20.5
800 meters- 2:42.6 (New school record)
Final turn on the mile.
She was one happy girl! An 800 meter school record was the perfect way to end a great track season! Good job Bailey!
