Today I did a quick 44 but it was a challenge!!!  I did single leg squats with a hop.  I started on my right leg and did 44 squats with a hop – they went OK and I only had to tap my left foot 2x to keep from falling.

My left leg squats and hops didn’t go as well – I had to tap my right foot down a lot.  

I like moves like this that make me have to work to not fall over!!!

Last night Hunter and I were talking about college and scholarships.  I told him that I went to college with a full scholarship – both academic and athletic.

Hunter’s response – I guess academic scholarships are a lot harder to get now.

What?!  I think I just got slammed.

He said well kids are smarter now and there is more competition for athletic scholarships than when you went to school.

What?!  Maybe you should stop talking, Hunter.

Then he started in on way back then.  

What?!  I’m not that old (well maybe I am but still!).

 

He wanted to know my SAT and ACT scores – I can’t remember my SAT but my ACT was 31.

Hunter also said – well you got an athletic scholarship but were there any really good runners at your school?

One of the people on our track team was late coming back to school in the fall of 1988 because he was running in the 1988 Olympics in Seoul.  He ran for Jamaica and won a silver medal in the 4 x 400m relay (the US won gold).  Plus, a couple of the years that I ran we were the NAIA National Champions!!!  

At the end of all of this, Hunter still tried to tell me that it is harder to get scholarships now than (way back) when I went to college!!!  Silly Boy!!!

Happy Sunday!!!  I’m off to  take my non-scholarship deserving self to tackle my to-do list.
