MVTC meet a fun family event

Jacob GunderKline outpaces the field in the 1500 meter
race walk at the all-comers meet last night.

If it had the feel of a Bulldogs soccer game, that was probably no coincidence; many of the usual suspects were in the stands, parents, grandparents and siblings of the Yellow Springs participants in the Miami Valley Track Club's All-Comers meet at YSHS last night. There were plenty of other families there too, from Dayton, Northmont, Beavercreek, just to name a few. And then there were the folks from YS who didn't have anyone in the meet, but just like to get out and support the things that Springers are doing around town, such as Mary and Ross Morgan, and Rick Donahoe. Participants ranged from the under four-year-olds in the 100 meter dash to a couple of guys who looked like they were in their 70s in the 1500 meters and the 220. It kinda makes you wanna get in shape...
