Irondale Twilight

Below is the schedule for Friday's Irondale Twilight.  The schedule is a bit different then the normal schedule, with some relay's added to the mix.  Another thing different about this meet is that the boys and girls times, heights, distances, in each event are added together and the overall winner of each event is dependent on both the girls and the boys, as well as the overall winner of the meet.  So, it may look like the girls were first in an event, but if the boys don't do as well, they may not win the event overall.  Also, this meet is starting later with the intent that many of the events will be run when it is darker and under the lights, thus the meet being considered a Twilight. 
The girls will find out today if they are in this meet or not.  There were a lot of different events, so it took a while to figure it all out.  Plus, not everyone is in this meet.  We are limited to two individuals in each event and one relay team per relay event, so we were not able to get everyone in.  

Irondale: 2425 Long Lake Road, New Brighton, MN 55112. Go East on Hwy 10 and continue on Hwy 47 towards Northtown and exit at Country Road 10.  Go East (left) on CR 10 and continue to Long Lake Road.  Take a right onto Long Lake Road and go about a mile, the school will be on your left.

 

But, if you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks
Denny

Blog Changes/Results

Good Afternoon,
So I have been continuing to work on the blog and have made a few changes.  At the top of the blog, there are four links to general results, not only for our athletes, but also for all of those in the State.  If we come across a meet that uses a different site, I will add that as well.
Also, on the right side of the blog page, there are a couple of new things.  At the top is a link to our all-time records, and below that will be where I post our results.  Sometimes it will be just our team results, sometimes it may be the meet results, depending on what I have access to.  I am still working on all of this, so if things change, I will let you know.
As for the results that I posted so far.  What is currently on the list is our times from Friday's U of M Indoor.  I have not received all of our field event results, so I have not posted those yet.  I am hoping to post those by tomorrow, Monday.  Once again, there were not any over all meet results, thus no team scores.
If you have any questions, please let me know,
Thanks
Denny

Friday Results

Good Morning,
There were not any overall meet results for last nights meet.  I am going to work on finding a way to get our results posted on here soon.
But it was a positive start to the season with some nice surprises from the new girls, and some solid performances from those returning.  We are hoping to build off do the performances that we have started with and hope to translate it to the outdoors!
Despite the snow, we are still scheduled for next meet, which is Tuesday at Centennial.  I will be posting the information for that meet on Monday, and let everyone know of any changes that may occur.
Any questions though, please let me know,
Thanks,
Denny Green

Friday

Below is the tentative schedule of events for Friday's meet.  The meet is at the University of Minnesota Fieldhouse off of University Avenue (directions below as well). 
We have the field house from 7:00-10:00, so we will be getting home a bit late.  Please make sure that you have rides set for your athlete if you are not able to be there when the buses get back, around 10:30.  Also, if you are intending to bring your athlete home from the meet, either before it is over or after the last event, I will need a note from a parent that the athlete will be going home with a parent.  If I do not have a note, I will have them go home on the bus.  Also, only parents and family can bring athletes home, not friends or a friends parent.  If you have any questions, please let me know,
Thanks
Denny Green
