Monday, January 2, 2023 Hunter texted Coach to ask if he was running on Saturday in Chicago. Coach replied: “My plan was to have you anchor the 4X 400, if you would have asked me in October I would have said, no. This will allow you to get back into racing with limited pressure. If you begin to feel like crap you can slow down. If you don’t want to race yet, I understand that also.” Hunter, of course, accepted the invitation and challenge.
Hunter’s A-team took second place MSOE-B team beat him by 1 stride. 56 seconds. 2.5 seconds faster than he’s run this year. (Track season) See pictures.
He was very emotional afterwards!! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!
He REALLY thought he’d never be competitive again!! And here he is MEET #1 holding on to first place until the very last fraction of a second!!! WOW!! God!!
