So this spring http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifbreak CU HJ held it down with Sarah over 6' and me over 7'. On my 29th attempt over 7 feet of my high jump career, I finally made it over. I hadn't PRed since January of last year (a 14 months or 421 days span), which made it even sweeter. It was wierd last weekend when I made 2.10m no touch to open up the outdoor season. I knew it was good to hit Regionals early, but that was the first time I was legitimately disappointed with "only" clearing 2.10m. Before this weekend I had been over 6'10 7 of 10 meets (don't worry about Heps). It's nice to know you can go out and compete, but getting that next height in is awsome. I've played out the jump in my mind hundreds of times, but how sweet it is.
It was awsome to hang out and compete with Spyke, holding it down with 2.00m, I was impressed.
Ippel man, I wish you were there. I'm sure Rome is treating you well. It's nice knowing I'm sharing a place next to Cornell's best high jumper.
Now I just need to prove I can do it again.
Anyway, here it is: http://people.cornell.edu/pages/dgp27/2.15david2.MOV
