Hello I welcome you to the first of hopefully many posts by me, Jake Elmslie on behalf of the Portsmouth Track and Field organization. The majority of this who would be reading know me and if you do not it is not a painstaking task to find me so with that in mind I'll leave the bio for a later installment. With that I move on to a report and if I feel smart in the midst of writing this analysis on the boys performances in the Classic Classical Classic that occurred in the year 2014. The meet opened with a 4x800 that not even self obsessed ESPN reporter could of predicted. Child of Wonder Patrick "Hoo" Hook opened the event with a performance that took expectations and catapulted them across the Himalayas running a 2:03.8 that left the other runners with a scorching ring that was once a track to run around. The Legacy of Speed Matthew Corbett followed that up with a brisk little jaunt continuing his comeback season with a personal best of 2:08.7. Jackson "Trackson" Reaper not wanting to let his comrades efforts go to waste took to the oval and ran a personal best of 2:14.5, Jackson later decided that one PR wasn't enough to curb his hunger for achievement and bread, much later in the day running a 10:03.1 in his personal favorite the 3000. Finally rookie sensation Spencer Wallace, filling in for myself while me and my groin finalize contract negotiations wrapped up the relay with a pretty bow, edging East Providence out of 3rd place by a fraction of a second with a time of 2:14.3. Reports indicate that while receiving their rewards a member of the EP relay team was quoted as saying "I hate you guys". The guys finished with a final time of 8:41.6 ranking them 13th in the state, one spot away from qualifying for the state meet, for now.
Later in the meet Little Compton Cannonball Nick Scott ran himself a PR in the 100 meter dash, barreling in at 12.5 seconds.
John "Is Going To Get Whooped At 7PM" Futoma furthered the fear running a 400 against him instills in the heart of whomever running a blazing 53.1 turning that still scorching ring pat had left into a pool of lava ensuring that Mt. Pleasant will be joining us in the no track club.
