This is it......

This is my final year of track and school here at Tech, and I must say it has been an experience ill not soon forget. Made a few good friends and lost the bad ones along the way, it’s all apart of growing up and accepting things for what they are. The season is approaching fast and within me lies a bit of apprehension, because I’m behind schedule with me still trying to recover fully from my injury. When you have to sit out and not participate in running for a while you kind of lose something. Maybe your confidence sometimes your drive and you may also lose a little heart. It’s the toughest thing watching races and looking at results thinking shoulda coulda woulda's. So this season I’m learning is going to be one of the most difficult ones, not just because I’m battling my opponents on the track but because I’m also in a battle with myself. Sometimes it’s so easy to make excuses and give up rather then bite the bullet and press on. I’m learning the meaning of being independent in this track thing, but I’m also learning when it’s important to listen to others advice and criticisms. The lesson that’s most important for me is to not doubt myself and my abilities; I’ve worked hard to accomplish what I have so far, and no matter what anybody else has said or done will over shadow that. It’s like the goals we set sometimes are so high that we sometimes don’t take the time to appreciate the previous goals we have already accomplished. So this year I will make sure to stop and smell the roses so to speak, because if I give my absolute best there’s no reason why I can’t reach my goals and far more. I’m not going to lie this coming back stuff is for the birds, because it’s no joke. But this is something that I’m beginning to look forward too.

P.S for all who care my birthday is October 27^th and there will be a party up in philly!! Yeah we doin it big!!!
