UGH YOUNG!

gainesville: florida relays: the 100...its about time i ran a real race. Ive been down here since early tuesday morning and have felt pretty tired since. truth be told i didnt know what to expect as far as times go and maybe i shouldnt be too upset that i ran what i did. Its always funny to me how i practice a few block starts on race day and feel like a beast and i think im gonna run a 9.something and it turns out to be some trash. Then the days where i feel like theres an ape on my back before i the gun goes off and i'll hit something tolerable. OH, i ran a 10.43 with a +2.5 on the wind, thats where the "ugh young" comes in to play. Pretty damn terrible but not as bad as that 1st race of last season.
Yesterday i was doing block starts with rashaad and bernard and on start number two i felt a click in my neck. Oh Gawd, i know what that means. IT means im gonna be walking around with my head turned to the side for the next 3 days. Some people call it having a crook in their neck. I was able to pull of a couple more starts before the actual pain kicked in and i was running pretty well, although i felt like i was workng really hard just to get rolling. i packed it up and rolled back to the palace that is the exteneded stay of gainesville where the pain kicked in. Lets just say i didnt enjoy the rest of the night...
Anyway, there was nothing really to speak of about the actual race other than it seemed long and it was the opener. Doyle says hes pleased with where i am at the moment and the times will come. Its hard to take because the times at the moment suck! But hey, maybe i'll take another sixty six hundredths of a second off of this 10.43 and take tysons job...
