Jarrett and Rylan Sweep Podium

A big congratulations to two of Proto Strength and Conditionings young athletes, Jarrett and Rylan, who finished first and second in the 400m, second and first in the 800m, and first in the 1000m relay at the District 6 Middle School Track and Field Championships.  The brothers could not have done any better in their three events!

The final event, the 1000m medley relay, is somewhat unique, and I'm sure many readers are unfamiliar with the race.  Rather than rewarding the teams with the most depth at a particular distance, this is a true evaluation of a team across all sprint distances.  The first leg is 100m, followed by a 200m, then 300m, and a final 400m lap as the anchor leg.  The Hampton Middle School was trailing after the first 300m, before the twins got the baton, at which point they closed the gap and pulled ahead for a comfortable win of nearly 10 seconds.

You can see the full results on the Athletics NB website.
