practice, practice, practice

today is our second full day in las vegas. yesterday, we had 2 practice sessions. i took a nap between them and realized, upon waking, why i was so cranky in the morning session (sleep is a powerful thing). both sessions were productive. the stars and stripes played some touch scrimmages with team germany while we went through situational play. we played rugby tennis in the afternoon, after our regular training, and the team i was on won..too many grubbers out of bounds by the other team : P


after our dunk in the ice pool (**ryan actually went underwater!), we had dinner, and enjoyed a team bonding game/meeting. i wrapped my evening up with a continuation of phase 10 with a few of the other girls, amy didn't fare so well last night. after reading for about an hour--Open is so good!--i passed out to the sounds of my dear lady and lillian. nyc isn't so far away on speakerphone :)


today we have 2 training sessions and a meeting. i'm working on my mental game this week before the tournament starts. my friend sent me a perfectly timed email that included an even more perfect video. just as she will be using it for motivation in her rugby endeavors, i too will use this video's words as inspiration to do what i say i want to do.  How Bad Do You Want It?
