I would like to apologize to my three (possibly?) faithful followers. We're approaching tourney time here at the OVC and I've been rather busy.
I dont think I ever personally stood on one of these....sweet, sweet misery
This past weekend was the OVC Indoor Track & Field Championship held at Tennessee State in Nashville. So, while it was here in town and I didn't have to travel, it was still a big time consumer. I brought work with me to the championship remembering that when I ran track in high school, there was plenty of down time during a meet. Turns out, there is no down time when you're filming everything in an effort to make a highlight tape of the event. But I digress, being at the championship made me realize a few things, most noticeably, just how much I miss running track. You wouldn't think one would miss running just to run but I miss the sprints even though I was never that great at it.
Now we start the late push towards the basketball tournament. First round games actually kick off this evening at a few campuses around the league. The winners will then come to Nashville to play the semi-finals and finals this Friday and Saturday. It should be a fun weekend but we'll definitely be busy. Last year, I helped w/ the Missouri Valley championship and that was four days of sore feet and sleepless nights, this year it will only be a two day extravaganza. We do have to get to the arena at 3am friday morning which none of us are looking forward to.
I'm going to try to give a few updates during the championship this weekend. I'm planning on making a video, chronicling what we, as a staff, do in preparation for our tournament and I'll definitely post that here.
Lastly, if you're looking for more reading material, may I recommend driveto225.blogspot.com. If you're looking for some motivation to get in shape (or to run sprints again like myself) this new blog may be able to get you fired up to get started.
