Woodbridge Virtual Invitational

 Well, this year has been one where we all have to try new things.  Last night, our team competed in its first ever "virtual competition"  The idea is that, all over the country, teams can run time trials, then submit them to a central meet organizer who will compile the results and determine team and individual winners.  

Joe and Taylor were our top runners on the evening

This year has been unusual, but we had about 20 athletes who had done enough work during the lockdown, and the summer, and the fall of distance learning, to be in good enough shape to compete.  We met at our track at 7:00 PM and our teams went through their first actual pre - meet warm up in 7 months.

Our Girls Warming Up

The kids who ran last night showed their grit and determination.  None of them had ever raced a 3 mile event on the track and we had a lot of younger, inexperienced runners who were very nervous about the concept.  But we had a lot of fun, too!

Taylor at the 2019 Section Championship

This has been a strange year for all of us so far, but Taylor's dedication to our sport and our team led her to run 500 miles over the summer and come into this year with tremendous fitness.  Great job, Taylor!  Go Huskies.
