Update

Starting the new year we have had a couple of really good vault sessions from 10 steps. So far we are holding 14.7ft and hitting a 36.2 mid. The progression is going well and bringing a lot of confidence in every vault. The ability to stay focused and in the present during every vault has been a big factor with each session since October. Strength and conditioning have increased as we have put more priority on diet over the last month. Looking forward to a few meets this winter to build into the spring season.

Outside of training, we are looking forward to a holiday in Jamaica for a week in Feruary. I have been completely focused on the work days left until we leave. This winter has been really cold and I am realizing how much the cold has bothered me this year.

The kids had a really good Christmas and New Year's during the school break. They will not run out of things to play with for a while. We took a small vacation in Memphis over a long weekend and ran into a bunch of old friends for the bowl game the hogs were playing in. We had a ton of fun swimming and going to the festivities surrounding the bowl game. It was just enough to hold us over until the Jamaica trip.
