Olympic Track & Field Trials

Hayward Field, Eugene OR

I had the privilege of watching two days of the Olympic Track & Field Trials in Eugene, OR.  The men's and women's 1500 finals were excellent races.  Leo Manzano won the men's race.  Seeing a guy who is only 5'5" out kicking everyone else down the homestretch was incredible.  No trip to Eugene would be complete without a trip to see Pre's Rock.

After the trials were over, we drove up to Portland.  I discovered Voo Doo Donuts and was quickly sent into a sugar induced coma by a ginormous apple fritter.  Got a tour of the Nike campus.  That place is amazing!
