This weekend at the chateau Delaney, there was an inspirational viewing of Rocky III, followed by Rocky IV and obviously Rocky V as well to complete the series (the men were controlling the tv if you are having trouble guessing). Naturally, this led to domination of the races by all people involved in such viewing, but more about that later.
The Eye of the Tiger is now my official song of the season and will be played before every training session and race, no exceptions. Bonus points if it is played by an old guy in sweats holding a boom box.
The rocky Marathon was followed by a delicious Italian dinner cooked by the top chef's Chad Day, Matt Delaney, and Jason Hettenbaugh, which was consumed by all, including Derrick, the infamous Sam Morse, Alex, Maddie, and her friends Carly and Jess.
Anyways, on to the racing. The NYSEF Harry Eldridge memorial races consisted of 7.5k classic on Saturday followed by a 15k mass start on Sunday for the guys and 10k for the girls. Result wise, I was pleased with my races, placing about as expected, but more importantly I felt much better in the races than I have been lately. Results can be found at www.nyseg.org for those interested.
This weekend the whole team will head back to Lake Placid for the Cornell Invitational and all the fun and excitement that it will bring with it. Watch out for an update on some intense 10k pursuit style racing next week.
Until next time,
The Stallion
