I ran
track
today!!!
___________________________________________________
Today I ran track, and it was a much more exhilarating experience than what I have imagined. I'm doing sprints, and since I am actually pretty good at it, I think that's what I'm going to settle on. I ran in my regular, casual shorts, and heavy basketball shoes, and my partner and I still won the relay.
When I first decided today to try out sprinting with a couple of my friends, I didn't know what to think, or expect. I more or less dived in with my eyes closed. It turned out to be pretty fun and I did pretty good considering the fact that I had absolutely no running gear.
So, sprinters have this thing called "turn-over" which is how fast your legs come forward to meet the ground everytime you take a step. Supposedly I have OK turn-over, since everyone was saying, "Aw, nice you have fast turn-over Michael!" (For some reason whenever I think of "turn-over" I think of a gun cycling its rounds. Weird.) So, I have decided that sprinting is the thing for me. (:
Now that I am pretty much in track, I can become more fit, run a lot faster, and of course most importantly, spend more time with the babe. I sounds dorky! Track season will be fairly busy, and hopefully fairly fun at the same time. I will use this particular post to write updates on my track experience. Every time I post an update, I will head it with "edit//"so that it is loud and conspicuous.

Wish me luck as an amateur sprinter!
