Hello to all my followers and potential followers out there! Its a new experience to actually have a blog that people (other than myself and one other friend) may actually read! I'm excited about it. I am also excited about the prospect of training and getting back in shape again. In addition it will be great to have a chance to pursue something outside of track which has the potential to be just as meaningful and exciting (working with the youth in my area).

As of today I have not totally finalized my project, but I have an idea of what it will look like. I think it will have to have some academic component included into an athletic endeavor. Being that I was a highly successful student athlete, I really want to instill that confidence in the kids I’m involved with that the two go hand in hand and are complimentary. Can't give you guys too much more details right now, because I like to keep these kinds of things close to my chest in the beginning (haha) so just stay tuned.
