Teddy... a champion!

I am so proud of my friend Teddy Tran, who I like to call my godson. He returned from the Gay Games in Chicago two weeks ago with three medals: a gold in the pole vault, a silver in the mixed medley relay, and a bronze in the 4x100 meter relay. Teddy was competing as part of Team SF.

Teddy said he was most proud of the bronze; he and his teammates were bumped down to the more competitive 18-29 age bracket, and they did much better than expected.

The other runners on the 4x100: David Rourke, Mark Fernandez, and Sothea Hien.

And the mixed medley: Pete Myers, Catherine Murty, and Sonia Smith.

You, go!
