Friday January 17 track

 Track laid - 330pm

Time run - 416pm

Temperature - 45

Wind - gusts up to 10 mph

Goal - to get back tracking.       how did it feel - Good to get back

Put down random food drops but he probably only took a 1/3rd

3 things did well

Very nice turns

Grabbed the article no hesitation 

At last turn on the straightaway to the article 68 yards he really plowed in 

Improve on 

Keeping as close to the track line as possible not let the wind have him run a few feet parallel to the track 

Keeping his head down mainly at the beginning of the track

We lined up double line markers for the beginning of the track then use old faded lines that were marked on the field for the course to see how close he could stay to the lines

As we went down the line and got to the next turn he made a huge arc in the opposite direction of the turn and we ended up back where the article w...
