A flashback to last year while sweating in Doha, and meeting @carleyy.thomas officially for the first time. : : I was in my position just off turn 1 on the first day of the meet when I saw her doing strides before her race, when I yelled, #gohuskies to her. Of course, she had no idea who the hell I was other than some jabroni wearing a @uwtrack hat & shirt in the photographers area behind the advertising signs. : : Fast forward a few days later after the 800s were over and her last night in Doha before going back to Seattle to start her first day of school at the UW. I sent Carley a message wanting to take a picture of her holding the UW flag that’s traveled with me to the last several world championship meets. : : If there’s anything I’ve learned about myself from 2020, it’s that I miss traveling and I miss live sports! : : © 2019, Paul Merca.
