Meet Results: CPS Championship Prelims 4/29 and 4/30

UPDATE: AMAZING! It's basically the end of the season and records are still being broken. On the girls side, Araceli Pacheco shattered the school record for the 800m run by nearly 10 seconds. For the boys, Dominic Guevara bounded over his previous record by more than 1 foot. For the "close but no cigar" bit, Gerardo Gutierrez came in 15th Place with a throw of 37'10" in the Shot Put. He needed only 11 more inches on that throw to qualify for the finals. I'd say wait until next year, but our senior goes out still holding the school record of 40'3".

Who's Ready to Eat?

Even dogs know what food is best for them. Maybe we all have something to learn about our food choices. I am willing to put money on this...if you cut out sugar and caffeine from your diets for the next month, you WILL become a better runner. Practice + good diet = weight loss and better running. Anyone willing to take me up on this? Read the article below. You will even save some money. So instead of McDonalds, stop by Jewel and "shop the perimeter" (fruits, vegetables, meats, milk).

Read this article. Click me!NO! THIS IS NOT GOOD FOOD! STAY AWAY FROM THEM AND ALL CHIPS FOR THE NEXT MONTH!
