This week

January 27, 2008 at 6:46 PM - 5 comments - link
So I got my next meet this Friday and Saturday in Lincoln, NE, and I'm really looking foward to it. Its a Friday, and Saturday meet and it duplicates the USA Indoor Meet with one round on Friday and one round the next day, even tho Nationals will have two rounds on Saturday, it give me the feel that every race is a one race final and with that, it will make me run HARD!!! I got this problem with opening up fast in my first round race, but we been working on some things in order to knock that non-sense out, so I hoping for a good performance there.

The meet will also allow me to see some friends that I miss a whole lot. Going up there will also allow me to see the guys and ladies I use to work with at my old school, its gonna be a good time and I'm looking forward to seeing them run. Shout out to the new school record holder in the indoor 800m run, can't wait to see you run in person and meet you!!!

So I had practice today on a Sunday...YES ON A SUNDAY!!! And it went pretty well. Me and my training pratner was going at it in the starts..lol!!! We some blocks with the auto timer/touch pad machine and thats when things got heated..lol!!! We got this time sheet from the UCLA Sprint Coach Tony Veney(sorry if I spelled your name wrong) it has target times, block start times and fly sprinting times on it. Basically, for example, if you are doing starts from the blocks and you come thru the 30m mark at lets say a time between 3.78 to 3.87, you are pretty much in the 60m time range between 6.58 - 6.67, I already ran 6.67 so far this season, with a horrible start, and today I was coming thru at 3.84, 3.87, 3.91 this was my first one( I was trying to loosing up) and one of the starts was like in the mid 3.8's. So now my dude was talking noise cause thats what he and I do in order to get amped up seeing that it was cold as hell out there, he goes and he was in the very low 3.9's lol, but he's not a 100m sprinter(even tho he tries to convince us he is..lol) so his starts isn't as explosive as mine, but put his 20.19w 200m 45.94 400m running butt on them turns, and its a rap!!! We influence one another, when one is tired and don't feel like going, the other motivates and vise versa. Its great to have a training partner like him. Every training partner I've had made me better, in recent times...James Lopes, Jared Lewis and the rest of the crew back at school made me better, my JUCO and University teammates made me the fighter that I am, and I thank you all, cause I wouldn't be here without you all and thats real!!!!

So after the starts, we had some speed endurance work......lets just say we wore each other out something crazy lol!!!! Lets just say we was trying to break the sound barrier...lol!!! But thats what we gotta do in order to achieve the ultimate goal, and we all know what that is....Eugene, OR, and then to this City in China.

Well thats all for now, I'll keep you all posted while at the meet if Sony sends my damn labtop back this week!!! I hate their customer service! I sent that thing back a month ago, and now they talking about "oh it will be there in four business days" AIGHT, it better be woman!!! lol

Brianna, don't trip girl, you knocking the rust off and you did fine...like the uniform too! LMAO!!! SEXXXXXXXYYYYYYY!!! Haha! Oh wait, I don't wanna be on your "text" hit list before we get a chance to talk face to face...lol!!!! And I still got that water balloon for your hair too girl if you front up on me!!! lol

Shantia, let it rip this week at your meet child, don't hold back!
