Final stretch

This is the last month before I am back at the US training camp to test for the US Skeleton team. Since my last trip there I have gained more strength, more speed and different techniques. I even have my ticket purchased and brand new workout gear to match.

I have been asked by several people where do I go from here. Well……. Once I test I can see if I am going to be gearing up for the push competition or if I need to focus more on the basics. My goal is to compete in the push competition later this year to see how fast I am to compared to everyone else.

The push competition is where you practice the start of the skeleton. This is you sprinting with a board at your side as fast as you can and hopping on. This may seem easy but it is REALLY REALLY hard. I have been working on my sprints as most of you know and that EXPLOSIVE start. This is something you learn and I am still learning.

August 2^nd is around the corner but with all this dedication that I have and the heart, I know it will only be successful.
