   My legs feel pretty rubbery right now, after competing yesterday and jump practice today. I think I did eight, eight step triple jump's. Each one seemed to get better and I ended up jumping just a tad under 12.50m. I feel like I'm starting to get a stronger comprehension of how it should feel technically. I can't wait to jump next Sunday fresh and with Saturday taken completely off.
   The funniest thing happened today during practice. There was a track meet put on for younger kids, there must have been at least 500, and a couple of them seemed to be interested in what I was doing. It was kind of a cool feeling being looked up to like that for a change, I even think I taught a thing or two about long jump to a couple of them--perhaps they will someday become the next generation of jumpers in Nova Scotia
