Dear Mom and Dad,                             4-5-73

That's great, Dad (your A). Those tapes must have done the trick. What ever it was I'm glad you did it.

I ran the mile and two mile in the track meet against Haverford yesterday. We went there instead of them coming here. I guess because our track wasn't ready (the lines aren't on too good or something). It was a rainy day all around but they had an indoor clay track (about 250 yds.) The mile was 7 laps and 2 mile was 14. I had a little over 5 minutes in the mile (next to last) and about 11:05.1 or 11:51 (last) depending on how you interpret "eleven...five...one." Its embarrassing to ask more than once when your last but I'll find out (hopefully) at the next meet. Next meet is Saturday at Dickinson with them and Delaware Valley. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner if you had wanted to come up (starting 1:30 pm). I know ^{(pretty sure anyway)} this won't get there before Sat. or in time for you to decide. I'll see you Wed. anyway, right? So Bill isn't out I hope he changes his mind. But, I guess he's doing what he feels is right or what he can handle. No major injuries. My foot almost went to sleep once. I just picked up my pace and it came back (something to do with practicing on my own-all ^(some) in my head).

love,

Mike
