Beijing 080808 Video Contest
The Beijing Games are the most anticipated Olympics in a generation. The once closed country of China has invested billions of dollars to throw the biggest and best coming out party the world has ever seen. TrackandFieldtours.com and Flotrack are teaming up to get you and a friend to the Olympics. TrackandFieldtours.com is the best way to catch all the track action in Beijing. It's so good that a lot of their clients are the athletes' family and friends. Track and Field Tours owners, Adam and Jessica Dailey were both Footlocker finalists and ran at the University of Arkansas who, like us at Flotrack, saw a need in our sport and decided to do something about it. The best uploaded video will win a track fans dream vacation, a trip for two to the 08 games with tickets to the track events. For more info about the wining prize and about the community's own Adam and Jessica Dailey click Track and Field Tours.

Congrats to the Malone guys though.
"Faith is to believe what you do not yet see; the reward for faith is to see what you believe".
Malone obviously understands that. Good Job!

I'm continually amazed at your work. It's been such a privilege to watch you and the rest of your teammates claim glory for both our Lord and for our school by running. Keep up the great work, Joe!
Comments like that, however much i might agree with them, are only begging for the jeers and criticisms of others. I'm not saying to deny your faith, just don't be so cheesily blatant with it...
Don't let these sinners rock your faith. Not only are born again people better runners, they are better people. Hide not your candle under a basket. A vote for this video is a vote for Jesus. PTL!
am i a sinner for wanting people to stop posting comments like the one you just posted? i think not. saying things like "a vote for this video is a vote for Jesus" is ridiculous. we are voting for quality of storytelling, editing, etc - it isn't a "vote for Jesus" contest.
natas...satan? OMG!!
money buys results. (but those results don't transfer from season to season)
Good Job Joe.
Your Wonderful Neighbor hahaha
wrapping it up, just because a piece of video fails to have God in its context does not necessarily mean it's against God.
or you're probably voting for obama!
Don't make this about something it's not.
(I think some great boxer dude said that) Good luck. Hope you make it to China.
think before you post...
too bad that wasn't the case for huckabee
And response to the Naia are a bunch of... comment assuming that comment was negative; naia will be the ones with all the track programs and all the xc programs when all the ncaa schools decide to give all their money to football and get rid of their track and xc programs. I also would guess in 10 or so years divII and divIII schools that dont have football will have the best programs with the fastest kids. Because your precious no naia schools can figure out how to fund the programs effectively.
It's best not to even comment on the negative stuff and let it go...it just encourages more.

oh wait, no it doesn't! next time be more constructive
