If you have been paying attention you will have noticed that the Carrott Chopper and the Buttery Stick have been tearing up the NCAA Div I track circuit as of late. Chopper was named
to the Academic All-Mid-American Conference squad for track and for
Cross Country and has been breaking PR's like she rips the heads off of carrots. Winning a steeple chase event at UR and frequently being the top distance runner at UB. Meanwhile, Buttery Stick
ran a PR of 3:45 at a 1500 meter event. For those of you keeping score at home, that's equivalent to a 4 :02 mile or a 4:00 mile if you ask Sticks Mom
Mrs Prozak. This maven of the margarine is closing in on breaking the 4 min/mile barrier! Not too shabby! And that's two of the fastest '
friends' I know! I will refer to them collectively as Carrot Stick.
**Notice the
mid-foot strike running form of Chopper and Stick as talked about in my previous blog.

To the devoted readers of this blog: Mr. ODR is the source of Mrs. Prozac's metric to English conversion issues. Mr. ODR was so excited to tell me what B.Stick's time conversion was, that he neglected to tell me he (the scientist, Mr. ODR) had put some 'slop' into the conversion.
On my honor I will never make THAT mistake again (trusting an over excited scientist/proud father doing mental math while jumping up and down in front of the computer.)
Sincerely, Mrs. P.
Bahahahaha! And he's an engineer?!?!?!
