Ohhh Yeah!!

http://www.tsn.ca/olympics/news_story.asp?ID=90898

My ex-training partner in Track and Field from ~2 years ago qualified for the OLYMPICS!!!

Gary Reed (now training in Victoria, previously of Kamloops) qualified for the 800m in Athens by running a meet-record time!

This makes me very happy, as he was my role model for training for many years... And proves that if you work your ass off, anything is possible...

I remember him living in Shane Neimi's shadow in the 400m for years and years, and now Gary qualified for Athens and Shane didn't

(Shane Neimi is the Canadian record holder in the 400m, also from Kamloops, and also a personal friend)

I feel very happy for him right now. (understatement)
