~:[CH12 - Day 114]:~ Survival
I was exhausted. I was trying to do work last night, but took a nap and woke up so that I could print out the docs for league finals. 250+ pages later, I was all ready for the meet. Waking up, I could sense my body was in survival mode. It made it worse, as I typically have time to get everything together before the meet, but with no school business subs available on this day, I had to be in class until just before the bus headed out. I scrambled around and got everything taken care of, but it wasn't easy. To top it off, the seniors convenient picked today to have a senior ditch day, which also led to a handful of my athletes eliminating themselves from prelims, which was upsetting. Of course, the responsible ones went to school and did what they needed to do to qualify. Prelims is all about survival. You show up, you place and you move on. For many, they just need to run a normal race and they were in and a good chunk of our athletes advanced. I was proud of those who ran today as they demonstrated that they'll be ready for finals. It's obviously difficult to determine who was running at 100% or not, but I felt a great sense of comfort with our performances across the board. It was an early finish, something I was hoping for, and so I was able to get home and rest. I took another nap, before sending out the results and doing the first step to prep for league finals. I've been working non-stop for the past few days, so it will be nice to slow down just a bit tomorrow, the first day without an even in a the past few days. I survived!
