We stayed in town today so that Jessi could compete in today's Madison City Indoor Track Meet. I put a photo album up on facebook. Memorial came in 2nd place. Jessi threw 30' 2.75" today (6th place in the city), about 5 feet less than she had hoped. It was a tough day for her. She's been running to prepare to for the possibility of attending the Naval Academy this summer, but she's sure that's not an issue. While it seems throwing is all about strength, it is more about technique and mental focus. As Monika put it-- this week has been stressful. She came to cheer her on. There just seems to be so much going on and it was a hard day to make the throws go as far as they had in practice. I have complete confidence she can get there, but I know that making a decision for her future will certainly help.
We went to Whole Foods for healthy driving snacks and lunch after the meet. I made it to a late afternoon Bikram Hot Yoga. I'm still feeling congested, but by the end of the class I'm cleared out. The heat seems to help, and hours later, I can still feel effects.
We leave in the morning for a spring break adventure, but it won't be nearly as warm as we'd like. I know the heat will come, but I think we will have to wait. I'm not sure I'm in for driving all the way to Florida to find the heat in the US.
