17 days til U23's

goooood moooorning NMPB! I seemed to have forgotten my little note pad so I don't have the specific times I wrote down this morning but I think I remember them fairly accurately.

A little news update: Firstly, I got a really nice heating pad so I can do the heat and ice routine on my shoulder, which is important because secondly, I'm playing front row this weekend! Dowty shot me an email last night mentioning my options. In the long run my best chances at the time big time are in the front row, most likely at hooker. This means it's even more important for me to keep my shoulders healthy since they'll be in even more intense contact.

gym arrival: 6:35 am

warm up: 3 or 4 easy laps around the track

run for your life: Ideally I would have done this whole sequence twice and I probably could have at least eeked out another half of one, but in the little time I had left I wanted to continue to do some shoulder work so I opted to go do some band exercises instead. Each lap around the track is a actually a little less than 100m but to make it easy I just go ahead and consider 1 lap=100m and give it a few extra steps at the end.

Then I walked back in and talked to the girl at the desk because I noticed the ball field had lights. How sweet would it be for me to have practice there? Pretty freakin' sweet!
