Jonny participated in the only race of the day that was a finals in the 4×800 Meter Relay. The boys were coming off a good performance of 8:01.46, but were going to need to do better to advance today. Unfortunately they didn’t perform as well today and their time fell to 8:07.35 and finished in 9th place. Jonny ran the 4th and final leg and at that point they were out of being able to finish 4th or higher to advance. Jonny ran around 1:58 which is far from his best time. He did advance the team overall 1 spot. He didn’t finish strong in the final 100 and knew he was not going to make the 2 seconds they were down and gave up “racing” which allowed the team behind them to catch him in the final three meters of the race and pass him for the 8th and final medal spot at the Regional Championship.
