Ciao!

hey guys,

I made it safe and despite the travel, the legs actually feel pretty good. I think ive adapted pretty well to the time shift as well with a solid night sleep last night and not too much grogginess. We got in late weds night so just had time for a quick jog around town to shake the legs out and scope things out then get some dinner.

Yesterday we (Jake Arnold (the other american) and Susan the Canadian) made it over to the track to get some more quality work in before doing some site-seeing around the lake. Today was another shake out at the track for some pre-meet but it was a lot more crowded as the rest of the athletes started to show. Theres about 30 guys and as many girls from 29 different countries.

Ive got to make it quick because im at a cafe on the way back to the hotel, but im pyched for the start tomorrow at 10:15 our time (4:15am east coast time). We are gonna see if we can do some damage for the US. You can check meet results, pictures, startlists, and updates at multistars.org.

Ciao!

Matt

Matt, Hope all is well with your training, racing and travel these days. Your comment on how your legs felt after travel made me think of compression tights. They make a HUGE difference for me, even after workouts during nap-time. They are essential for travel, if you don't have a pair.
