The weather wasn't overly cooperative today, it started to rain pretty hard near the end of the workout but we got through it. Things got switched up a little today, shifting out of general prep. We did short hill runs focusing on accelerating more so than work capacity--the farthest one was 40m.
   Weights felt pretty good, I really hate dead-lifts though--I took a quick video, there's definitely some work that has to be done technically. They were a little better than they have been though, I might raise the weight next week, 245lb's perhaps.
   I feel like I'm getting faster, stronger and hopefully next month I will start to become more technically proficient, I can't wait to compete again, it's one of the only things I have been thinking about. My only worry is that the gains wont directly translate into a farther triple jump but I guess that's where the technical part of practice comes in.
