WINNING

 

USE THOSE ARMS AND LEGS IN UNISON!

 Athing Mu, a 19 year old from Trenton, New Jersey wins the 800 meter run in an American Record time at the Tokyo Olympics.

WATCH her form and how she utilizes her legs. Watch her arms and how she extends them with perfect form.

F.O.R.C.E.

I guess it had to happen some day. Coach Budd would use the FORCE as a method of training.

HEAT

Heat index is high most of this week. It is suggested that you run early in the morning as lightning and thunder are predicted for the evenings. Stay safe!

MASSACHUSETTS SENIOR OLYMPICS

Thank you to Alumni for helping to make the Massachusetts Senior Olympic Games a great success as well as members of the East Longmeadow Lady Spartan family.

Pictured here is Discus School record holder and Regis College graduate/thrower Elisabeth Cooke (r) and Springfield College graduate Carolynn Bedell(l). 

We also received some assistance from Western Mass Recordholder and Morgan State graduate's Mom, Mrs. Everett (Jenise Everett was our school and Western Mass record triple jumper- soon to be a Hall of Famer), Coach Carr, and former boys Long Jumper and assistant Coach Benoit.

For those of you seeking community service hours, you should volunteer for events Coach Budd puts out there, because a lot of the time there are other incentives, like free meals or in this case, free tee-shirts that commemorate the occasion. This time volunteers also got paid.
