What a Week...continued

Last Friday I had the chance to go down to the Olympic Trials in Eugene. It's crazy to think I have lived so close to the historic Hayward field for so long without EVER watching a track meet. I was missing out, that's for sure. For those of you who have never been here are a few pics from the day. It's also crazy to think that this little company called NIKE started on that very track.

Those two are PRE rock...where Steve Prefontaine crashed and died at age 24, one year befor the 76 Olympics which he planned to win.

Mac Wilkins...3 time olymipc medal winner in the discus gave us a speech about what these athletes are going through as they prepare for the events.

Mac Wilkins in the early years. The coolest part about him is that he works at Concordia as the throw coach and is really turning things up in NE portland.

These guys are so fast. ..
