Lincoln had an amazing track season this year. He had a great coach (Coach Erickson) who really thought a lot of Lincoln and worked a lot with him. He also had a friend named Tristan that was an amazing runner and helped Lincoln giving him lots of tips.
In the last few meets Lincoln took third place in both the 1600 M and the 800 M races. He got very good at them. His best time on the 1600 M was 5:36 and his best in the 800 M was 2:28. In the county championship meet, his coach wanted him to just do the 800 M so he could focus on that one. I couldn't believe how fast he went. His paces way faster than it had been up to this race and he ended up taking 3 place against some of the fastest runners in the county and took 10 seconds off his time with at 2:18. He was right behind 1st and 2nd. We were just SO proud of him and his hard work!!
I really like that they gave them medals and had them stand on a "podium". It was neat for the runners.
The girls took first place in the county and the boys took third. It was such a great track season!!
Go Vickery!
Here are a few pics from other meets.
Go Lincoln!
All of the Vickery runners together (except Tristan who had already won the race).
The guy next to him with the red hair is his buddy Tyler. They were good friends through the track season.
He got third place in this race. We were just so proud of him!
