Practice on Wednesday was probably the best vaulting day I have had yet this season. Started out a little rough, but I was finally able to start feeling like I was moving the pole again, not just getting slammed. I even managed to get some decent jumps in from a 5 step. The fear wasn't there either which was great. Lifting went well too. Front squats 3 sets of 6,6,7 at 140 lbs. We also did hang cleans, 3 sets of 8 at 100 lbs. And managed to get bench in as well, 3 sets of 8 at 90 lbs.
Got up for 8 am practice, after finally getting a decent amount of sleep! Did some decent approach work, for both triple and pole vault. Then we ran a workout. 3 sets of 3 150s. There were just three of us running them, but thats the best I have felt in a workout in a long time. Coach Lou gave us times to hit each time, the only time I was over the time was the very first one when he asked for a 21, I ran a 22. Was not sure at the start what exactly the pace should feel like...Afterwards I did abs and some good stretching. Then I sat in the cool pool for a while.
I am excited for the meet tomorrow. Hopefully it will be a good day!
