Wow I can't believe this month is almost over, it seems like the school year has just begun and it's already pretty much December. I felt better today than I have over the past week which is probably do to taking yesterday off. Things didn't go quite as well as I hoped though but at least I can take a few positives from what happened.
   I started off with runways, the first one was way off and hurt my hamstring a little but they got better. I tried driving through 10 strides instead of 8 and I felt like I had a lot more speed at the board, I had to move my first mark back to 32.70m which is the farthest it has ever been (At the beginning of last summer it was 30.50m!), I feel like I will have more momentum in Moncton it's just going to be a matter of controlling it.
   Actually jumping today felt terrible, I just felt incredibly tired I had absolutely no "pop". I spent time just working on the landing of the hop to little avail, maybe my time would be better spent trying to get my foot under me after the step phase.
   The weightroom went alright, I think I'm finally starting to get a feel for Hang snatch, I went up to 135lb's and it felt really easy. I definitely could have went up even more. Bench press however was a train wreck, it's by far my least favorite exercise in the gym, I tied my pb at 165lb's, failed at 170lb's and ended up going down to 155lb's.
