Who Knew?

I came across this photo recently. In the middle of the photo is a cute blond girl who has become a very talented runner. To her right is the daughter of Robyn MacSwain Berry (Terra Linda) who held the MCAL 3200m record for 30 years until the 2012 NCS Meet of Champions when this cute blond broke the 3200m record.To the left is my daughter and I have held the MCAL 1600m record for 37 years (Tam).

I coach this runner who has told me “Your record is going down.” and she is right.
