April 30th

So, This past weekend I competed at TCNJ and threw 62.9ft. Not good!!! I was doing some technical things wrong that I could not correct on the "fly." If I would have caught one, I probably would have went over 65. So, this Friday I am competing at Princeton U. and Saturday at Delaware U. Hopefully I will hit one before my training slows down my body. I am doing a new cycle of training which is completly foriegn to me. I hope it works?!?!?!?

To add in something positive. I had some people come to practice today to film me for a Documentary by KLEENEX (the tissues), a sponsor for the 2008 Olympics. Them being there really charged practice. I had a couple throws at 59ft with the 18lber (2lbs heavier than the competition weight). The technique was not great but I was hitting the ball well. This saturday after the Delaware meet they will be coming to my parents house in South Jersey to film my father, my brothers, my cousins and my uncles who use to compete in track & field or still actively competing. If you know my family, this should be crazy!
