PFW

 Jack took a recruiting trip to Purdue Fort Wayne this weekend. We drove up Saturday and met with the coach on Sunday. We drove back on Monday. Tim came with us to the visit. It was a great visit. Jack saw the athletic facility, indoor golf facility, Pine Valley Country Club, and met some of the current golfers. He really enjoyed the visit and school. He will have to wait to see if he gets an offer. Coach Billy want to come see him play this spring. It was a nice visit to see everyone quick!

Ollie's Playdate

 Walker came over for the day. Ollie was happy to have him to chase around the yard. 




Organizing the Medals

 I have been trying to figure out what to do with my marathon/half-marathon medals for a while and decided to put them in a jar rather than display them on a wall.

Topeka Indoor Track Meet

 Anna has not gotten to race this year because of her stress fracture and since she is healing, we wanted to run this meet to try to qualify for Boston indoor nationals in a few weeks in the 800 and mile. She ran the 800 first and set a PR by over a second, 2:25.03. This time qualifies her to run in Boston. She ran the mile later and didn't have enough endurance to qualify for Boston, but still ran a 5:36.59. Kate and Elizabeth ran the mile too, Kate set a PR of 5:24.14 and Elizabeth was close to her PR, 5:29.31.
