Distance Challenge

The Utah Distance Challenge is this week. Everyone one on our team is running the mile unless you have arranged something different with me. All 800 runners are going to do a 400 after the mile.  You are required to pay for yourself($5). It is also your duty to find a ride there.  We will meet at the school at 3:30. Unless you are running a different event besides the Mile.
