I'm a little late with this post. Just arrived back in Minnesota from a longer than expected training trip to Florida. I had planned on only being in Florida for a week but it turned into two unexpectedly. My first week of training was great in Florida, it was my first time visiting. It was a nice change of climate for me coming from bitterly cold Minnesota. I soaked in as much sunshine as I could and threw the discus outdoors to my heart's content.
On the last day in the sunshine state I was involved in a roll over crash in which the vehicle I was a passenger in rolled 5 times. The car was traveling on the interstate going at least 75 mph when a trailer a few cars ahead blew a tire causing the person behind them to swerve into our lane causing the vehicle I was in to avoid hitting them and as a result losing control and flipping. I'm grateful to report there were no serious injuries, and I was left amazingly unscathed, not a scratch or sore neck. Fortunately I did not miss any training time and was able to stay awhile longer and train before I went back to Minnesota. It was unfortunate about the accident though which could have been much worse.
Now I'm back in Minneapolis and looking forward to getting back to the Boys and Girls Club and being patient to get outside and throw while the snow melts!
