NEVER QUIT

NEVER QUIT
If you are not practicing, just remember: someone, somewhere, is practicing, and when you two meet,
given roughly equal ability, she will win. -Ed Macauley

"Too often we are scared. Scared of what we might not be able to do. Scared of what people might think if we tried. We let our fears get in the way of our hopes. We say no when we want to say yes. We sit quietly when we want to scream. And we shout with the others when we should keep our mouths shut. Why? After all, we do only go around once. There's really no time to be afraid. So stop. Try something you've never tried. Risk it...you have nothing to lose and everything, everything, everything to gain." –Nike

Update from MD

Hey...
So getting back to lifting has been a little shock on the body. Monday Jmar, Monica and I met at my high school and ran on the track. It was windy and cold, a nice preview to Boston weather in preseason! We then proceeded over to the Y to do our lift. I had forgotten about how the Y refuses to have 45 lb bars, the have a 50lb bar which is kinda fat and hard to get a good grip on, and another bar which we are not sure if it is 35 or 40lbs. Once we finalized which bar to use the work out went pretty well. The weightbelt wasn't being used which was nice, so Jmar and I could actually do weighted chin-ups this time.
Today we met up once again at the Y to do the running. However, all of the baseketball courts were being used so we couln't do the 60 yd shuttles as a replacement for the slideboards. Instead we did treadmill sprints that were 30 sec on and 30 sec off. Then we did the treadmill replacements for sled pulls, which were good. We were hoping to do some stickwork in the gyms when we were done but they were still all being used. So we decided to go outside a brave the cold to throw around with our new sticks for a little while.
Tomorrow were goingt to go to the gym earlier so that we can hopefully throw around for a while inside.
Well that is all from Maryland

Miss you all!
