What about Track & Field / Torpedo on track!
« on: March 21, 2010, 01:24:00 PM »
The gun has sounded and the race has started! Richard 'Torpedo' Thompson kicked off his 2010 outdoor campaign with a 3rd leg split of 46.82 secs in the 4X400 relay at the Louisiana Classic in Lafayette yesterday. This is Torpedo's first 400 metres race run since attending LSU. He said that he was a bit conservative especially in the middle part of the race but now that he knows what he is capable of, things will just get better from here onwards. He got the baton in 4th place and handed it over in 2nd place to help his team to finish in that same position. As he said "This is just the beginning and a sign of things to come"
Here are the results for the race:
