Mariners first pitch ceremony

Washington Olympians were honored last night at the Mariners game with a first pitch ceremony.  There eight of us from different sports track and field, rowing and soccer.  As we were each introduced they had  cool videos playing on the jumbo tron.  They had 4 of us throw simultaneously and 4 stand behind cheering.  It was pretty cool.

We got to meet the Mariner’s Moose and take pictures with him.  We all watched the game together which was awesome.  The best part of the night was the Mariner’s won and beat the Los Angeles Angels.  I also ran into a few friends who work for the Mariners and it was great seeing them.

My son also had a blast.  He got a lot of cool Mariner stuff and one of the players game him a baseball.

DecaNations in Paris France

     The DecaNations meet was in Paris, France on September 6th 2008.  It’s run like a decathlon except we compete in our individual events for a team score.  I finished in 2nd in the women’s discus and we had a great field which included the Olympic Champion.  Team USA won the meet, Germany was 2nd and France was 3rd it was very exciting.  Here is a link with full results, http://www.athle.com/asp.net/main.html/html.aspx?htmlid=3080
