Equipo de Atletismo!

For the last couple days I've been going to the tryouts for the track and field team at TEC. Looks like I'll be on the team! I'm so excited about this because now I will have the chance to travel and see Mexico! Of course, I'll also be able to continue competitive training for distance running. Practices are 7-10 every morning, but actually that's been working out great. I had all of my classes scheduled to be after 10, so I have no conflicts. The best part about it is that it's cool during that time of the day... I ran 8 km in the middle of the day today and just about died!
It's hilarious when I'm trying to understand what the coaches are trying to get me to do. Basically a lot of actions are involved. My Spanish is coming along quickly though! I've made some new Mexican friends through the team too for which I'm especially glad... most of my first friends were international students since we were the only ones here for the first week. I'm not sure when the first competition is, or what distance I'll be running, but I'll keep you updated!
Hasta luego!
