HERE"S THE RECAP OF MY 2007 OUTDOOR SEASON:
Oregon Invite: 201'2"
Oregon Twilight: 209'9"
The Road to Eugene 08': 216'6" (New personal best)
USA Outdoor Championships: 214'9" (Placed 10th)

I really enjoyed my first post-collegiate season. There were so many "news" for me this past year. I had my first high school coaching opportunity, a new coach, new technique, and worked two new jobs to support my passion. I feel really great about what I accomplished and know that I have set myself up to be successful for the Trials.
I took two months off after USA outdoors and enjoyed other cross training exercises: jogging along the Willamette river, aerobic lifting, swimming, and hiking. I began weight room circuit training in mid August. My circuit training is designed to move around my own body weight in twelve different exercises. I just started throwing and drilling with Stewart Togher for the 2008 Olympic trials in the beginning of September. I will replace circuits with lifting in October. I will keep you posted on what my 2008 competition schedule will look like.

I hope everyone had a great summer!
