WELCOME
Hello and Thank you to anyone who is taking time out of their day to read my blog. I am so excited to share a part of my life with you and I hope along the way you will gain something from this experience as well.
Let me start by saying in 2012 I will be in London competing for my country in the Olympic Games--well, at least that's my plan. It's gonig to take a lot of hard work to get there, but I plan to give everything I have to achieve my goal.
Presently, I'm entering my senior season as a collegiate shot putter/discus thrower. I spent most of last year on the outside looking in; this year I'm going to be the main attraction. By the end of this season I will be an NCAA champion.
I think I got a little comfortable last year and didn't reach my full potential, which is why I created this blog, so I can be accountable to myself and everyone who supports and encourages me. I will be blogging about my last year as a NCAA thrower and my journey to the 2012 Olympic Trials.
I titled this blog "Mark" because that's the one word I want to hear when I finish a throw. If I have the best throw of my life, it means nothing if the red flag goes up.
With all that said, let the journey begin!!!
This year, our team is going to try to fundraise a little more than we have in the past so we can go to some of the bigger meets this year, but we need some ideas. Can anybody offer any suggestions?
SN: Please, please feel free to comment on any of my posts and invite your friends to follow me!!!! Thx. I look forward to hearing from everyone!
