Penn Relays Here We Come.( Yea Boi!!!!!!!)
There are a couple meets throughout my life that I ran in that are special to me. Special in a way that makes me remember them for a long time and always want chances to go back and run at those meets again.
Well this weekend I am getting that chance, the Warner University 4×400 meter relay team has been invited to run at the 2009 Penn Relays Carnival located in Philadelphia, Pa. This is probably the biggest meet of the year on U.S. soil. It brings the best of the best from high school to professional, teams from other countries like Jamaica, Russia, China and many more.
I have ran at this meet 5 times, and it is always and amazing atmosphere and a great place to run at. Not just the meet but everything else that goes along with it. For one weekend downtown Philadelphia is turned into track town International. I grew up twenty minutes outside of Phila, this meet is like going home, I watched my sister run there most of my best friends and a lot of hall of fame track and field athletes. Not to mention having the honor to run there myself.
This will mark the six year I will compete at this meet and I am so excited, I have friends and relatives coming to see me run, people who wrote about me in newspapers are going to be there, this meet is just all around the best track meet I have ever had the honor of attending. It might be the last time I get a chance to run here so I am going to have fun while doing it, run hard and thank my lord and savior for another opportunity to be apart of something so special to me.
Wish my teammates and me all the best ok. GO WARNER!!!
