The Senior Games officially began with the lighting of the torch near the end of a banquet held at Deep Run Recreation Center (the rear of the building is in the photo below).
I brought home four gold medals (for the 200, 800 and 1500 meter in track and field; and a 5K road race) and Butch brought home three silvers. I actually won the 800 meter women's race. I felt like I was watching someone else's life, and kept thinking the other two women would surely pass me at some point. But they didn't. That's the first race I won.Butch won silver medals for placing second in his age group in the men's division of the 800 and 1500 meter track events, and Sunday's 5K road race.

Way to go people!! Just wondering what events you both medaled in? Sprints, middies, distance events? Are age groups factored in?
