Regina

I decided to race in Regina at a track meet this weekend. Expectations weren't too high given that Winnipeg was a big improvement last weekend, and the Sask track isn't as fast. With consideration to this, I was still mildly disapointed with my speed: slow in the 1500m - 4:07 and quite slow in the 1000m - 2:36. Mentally I was dead; 4 races in 7 days is a lot. Except for the lengthy bus ride, I'd say the weekend had value in terms of training effect. In terms of racing, it really wasn't too beneficial. Spencer Pootz ran some good races on our team, so that was great to see. The rest of us in distance weren't too sharp. I'm off to Vancouver Wednesday for 4 days of Olympic fun (and training)! CanWest Track Champs are the following weekend in Edmonton. I then leave that Sunday night for Playa del Carmen (via Toronto) for the first World Cup of the season! Things are sure progressing quickly. With the Olympics on TV now, my productivity has slowed dramatically, but my motivation is really high!
Thanks for following.
