Photo of the Track & Field Now: 10 May 2011

Chelsea and Dexter faced off in a dual track meet.

The Chelsea track program has a piece of Chelsea history: an Ames shopping cart!

For those of you who weren’t here then: Ames was the store that predated the now-closed Pamida.  I don’t recall how long it’s been since Ames closed its Chelsea location, but I do know it’s been a while.

One Chelsea distance runner takes a unique approach to her footwear:

She’s wearing Vibram FiveFingers shoes.  I’ve never worn a pair, but those I’ve known who have worn them have given nothing but glowingly positive reviews.

The Dexter high jump coach found a good use for the iPad: recording the jumps.

Photo of the Track Previewin’ Now: 30 March 2011

I visited the CHS track during a practice to get a few photos for the Chelsea Standard’s track & field preview.  As usual, that involved getting shots of seniors…


Hey, look, Coach K!  It’s the seniors displaying a gesture made famous by those memorable Duke basketball teams from the early 1990s.  OH WAIT.  No they’re not.

as well as a few action shots.

What?  That’s an action shot.  That’s what hurdles do.
