Thanks for starting the thread once again LucKY!
I have developed a lovely head cold which is eating into my workouts. I'm still on vacation and I didn't want to feel bad when we go out at night so I'm trying to slip in naps as much as possible. It seems to be working. The cold is in my head but has not slipped into my chest. It takes me a long time to recover from chest colds - my lungs seems to get zapped and stay sub-par for several weeks after. So I am crossing my fingers.
2015 was a good news/bad news type of year. Good news: I have a #1 national and top 5 world ranking for both my events in W55, and am top 3 nationally and top 5 world in both events in W50 when counting wind-legal times. The national meet in Jacksonville had incredible tailwinds (some of the 100m races were +4.5 mps) and IMO those performances should have asterisks beside them for ranking purposes. I wanted to get the W55 AR for the hurdles but missed it by 5 hundredths. My foot was bothering me too. Missing the record frustrated me to the point that I continued to train and was ignoring increasing pain and swelling in the lateral area of my foot. My doc said surgical hardware from a previous surgery was working its way out of my foot, but there was more. Two weeks after I ended my season in late October I had surgery for removal of the hardware and a bone spur, and repair of a partially torn tendon. So that's it - good performances, just missed a record, surgery.
For 2016 I am trying to get back to sprinting and hurdling in time to compete at the indoor national meet in New Mexico in early March. I also want to compete at the outdoor national meet in July. Finally, chasing that record last year made me so focused on it that I started missing the fun of my running so I want to reclaim that very important part of our sport.
So let's have fun in 2016!
