Preseason

Right now our team is in the beginning of preseason. This means a few things:

• My days consist of working out, sleeping, and eating. Then working out, eating, and sleeping.
• Blisters.
• My big toe nails are splitting - their ends are near.
• Both my basketball sneakers and running sneakers are wearing thin.
• My laundry loads have increased due to the number of shirts I sweat through.
• Ice baths. Lots of ice baths.
• Buying 1.5 liters of water in bulk.
• And questioning why I put myself through this.

Every athlete hates preseason. You just take it one day at a time until the fun starts.
