Feeling the Heat in Frisco...

On July 9th, Ben and Zach participated in the Dallas Texas Regional Track meet, which covers Dallas/Ft. Worth and many surrounding areas. Zachary ran the 800 meters and Ben ran the mile. Two weeks earlier they both ran PR's (personal records). Zach ran a 3:01 800 meters and Ben ran a 6:03 mile.

It was a hot day and tough competition. Zach got blocked out during the start and had a tough race. He still finished with a 3:11 - very good for a 12 yr old!





Ben had a great mile race - 5:53 - and was able to push his way to 6th place, qualifying him for the State meet on Saturday, July 30th.



Sorry for the loud yelling during the video, but hey - I am the coach :-)
