Lucy did head to head full runs against Z. and Tk. for the first time. The two greenies acted like seasoned pros, taking a look at Lucy at the start line but never so much as thinking about crossing over.

Team practice
At today's practice we had Lucy and Sammy race head to head, giving Lucy a nice big head start because Sammy loves to race (unlike Lucy who seems utterly oblivious to the fact that there's a dog running in the other lane). When Sammy has a fast dog to race against, or if she's behind the dog in the other lane, she picks up so much speed racing to the box that she has trouble coordinating herself at the box/ball. Took us a while before we realized this because our team doesn't have a speed demon dog. Anyway, giving Lucy a headstart worked like a charm, and Sammy was flawless, running fast and not only catching up to Lucy but even passing her several times!
BREAKING NEWS: At today's practice, 3 of our up and comers completed several beautiful, totally independent full runs with gutter but without a knee, some with the box partially sprung!! Yay!
