Went to the track again today, only as a spectator though. My teammate was competing in the Steeplechase. Whoever made up that race has a vendetta against long distance runners, lol. Its such a brutal gamut. When I arrived, there were a bunch of children reporters in the stands ready to interview people like me. They were so cute, they asked like 1 question and then asked for my autograph. Let me tell you, people throwing notepads and pens in your face feels awesome, even if it is just kids, and even if you know you don't deserve it. Anyway, the race was painful to watch at best. My teammate didn't only come last, he came DEAD last, like half a minute behind the competition. Dang.
Didn't do much during the day. Went back to the track at night to watch the 100m finals. Both men and women Jamaicans won. One of the VI coaches was telling me about the Technology College the have there and how they study how to run. All the fast Jamaicans come from that college. They have it down to a science. Only sprinting though. Goodnight, Salaams.
