Who Knew?

Okay...so I didn't expect to have two post on my first night, but I did try to warn you that I will comment on just about anything.  Here I sit waiting for Paige to come home from dog-sitting and I found that there isn't a lot on TV on a Friday evening.  What is on right now is the US Track and Field Olympic Trials in Eugene, OR.  Did you all know that they will run track meets in the pouring rain?  I didn't.  Somehow it seems not to be the best of circumstances.  Then again, they will run horse races in the rain and those poor horses and jockeys are running in the mud.  Who knows how many goggles a jockey has to go through during conditions like that.  That's right...you heard me...jockeys wear any number of layers of goggles to help them deal with the dirt getting kicked up into the face as they go along the track.  I only learned that of late and only because Paige's mom is a horse person.  Anyway...at least runners don't have mud in the face.
