The Council has spoken, the votes have been cast, and the results are in for this week’s Watcher’s Council match up. The president’s mask is off, and it didn’t take long did it?

I did not know the men’s 800 could have so much fun! I haven’t had this much fun since I ran 800s and was cheered at an away team match by the home team’s crowd! Led by a girl much much better looking than Paris Hilton! (My nearest competitor was from the third school invited, [...]
