Clint took Carson and his friend, Ethan Fullmer, down to Provo to watch the State track meet. They had a great time and saw some great races! Our friend, Claire Mantz, ran the 1600 and the 3200. Her last year at state! We sure will miss hanging out with the Mantz family at all the XC and Track meets.
The highlight of the day was watching the 3200. That race was insane! It's especially fun when you know the guys because Ethan was friends with all of them when he was running. Casey Clinger (American Fork) has been the guy to beat all year. He is so fast! Talon Hull (Weber High) has had an excellent season. Talon lead Casey the entire race and really started to pour it on the last 400. Casey kicked it up a notch to keep pace with him. By the time they were rounding the track for the final 200 they were at an all out sprint! Casey was edging up on Talon, but Talon held the lead until Casey out leaned him at the line to beat him by .05 seconds! In a 3200m race! That is insane! They both broke 9 minutes. Crazy!
