    It was a wonderful day to Throw in St. Louie! There
were seven classes of athletes including a Pro class. Good food, not
enough porta-potties, and a great way to end the season for most of us
midlle of the country folks.

    Sean Betz was amazing as he crushed the world record
in WOB, 19'5'' I believe. He is a great athlete and a credit to the
sport.

    Nathan Burchett broke a world record for the
lightweight class with 16' 6'' in the WOB. He and his brother fought it
out for first and second all day.

    The masters class was great, I got to compete with
many friends and made some new ones. (I finally beat Rick Kramer, too).

    The Chiropracter guys and girls were working on the
athletes all day and they were welomed, and free! Thanks to Logan Chiro.

    Scott Runnels and all the others who judged and kept
our scores and kept us going all day, deserve a great big "Thank You"
from everyone.

    See you there next year!

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I probably broke some kind of world
record also. I had six of my eight kids competing there with me. One
dancer and five others competing on the athletics field. Well, I think
it's a record anyway...

	I agree! Kudos to Mr. Runnels and the rest of the crew for an excellent event. Thanks to all of the judges, and, of course, the sponsors for making it happen. For those of you interested in the Scottish Culture side of our sport, the Friday night events are also really cool.

	It was a great day for throwing. A little wet in the morning but not to bad. I was disapointed at first when I missed Sean's first world record at 19'1 or 19'2 but did make over to see hes AWESOME throw of 19'5. Congrats Sean!!! The St. Louis boys put on a great game. Can't wait til next season to throw again and see everyone.
	Throw!! There is no finish line!!
