Day 7, 8, and 9.....training days

Nothing too exciting going on these days but the boys are doing fine and their 2nd training run today was a huge boost. They pushed hard and had a decent down time. Must be from all the 'hit' pracice they are doing (that's attacking, or hitting the sled all at the same time at the start). See pic.
I must say, even being Greek, I am getting a little tired of the Greek restaurant, although yesterday, Babbis made us some mousaka which was a little treat cause it takes long to prepare. It was a long shot from what Mamma makes but it was not bad.
Today is the first day where I can say it is getting long now. Been here 8 days but now that I am not doing much, but videotaping the guys runs, the whole morning is spent at the track and then, cause they won't let me slide, it gets long.
The World Cup men's skeleton is on tonight so I will definately go see that. My buddy, Paul Boehme, and now to be Olympian, is first off.
It's amazing talking and seeing the CDN guys and girls, Duff, Jeff, Paul, Kelly, Michele, Lindsay, Melissa, Carla......I mean these folks are champions. Paul gave me some tips for next week that I will try out. I wish them all the best.
My neck/back has been really bothering me still so, a very special lady, Yvonne, (don't worry wife....not that kind of special) really massaged the crap out of me, twice this week, and I think she got the knot loosened. She was just great and under certain circumstances, I was very fortunate to get her. Thanks Yvonne.
Well, I am definately eager to get my show on the road. After walking up and down the track so many times, I feel like we are one with each other......I'll tell you if that's true after my first training runs next week he he.
Hi to all the guys at work.........no, I didn't retire!!
