My Dad, the Olympian

My dad had the opportunity to participate in the Huntsman World Senior Games this past week. This is an international competition for adults age 50 and older to compete in a variety of sports. The games are held every October in Southern Utah. For more details, you can visit http://www.seniorgames.net/index.html

My dad competed in the 800 meter run. He finished in eighth place with a time of 2:40. The gold medal winner is from Barbados and finished in 2:13. The world record for the men's 800 meter is 1:41.11

WAY TO GO, DAD!!!
