August 8th

Today we only had on workout.  I woke up at 9 this morning.  I got up and ate breakfast and went to practice.  The focus of the practice was working on the mat.  We started by warming up on our own and then we were put through some drills.  We did drills for about 15 minutes.  After we drilled we wrestled on the mat.  The periods were 3, 2, 1 minutes and 30 seconds on top and bottom.  Then Kevin put us through about ten minutes of conditioning.  That was practice for the morning.

I went back to my room and showered after practice, then went to eat lunch.  Dominic and I planned to go play golf. Jeff Bedard and Ty Reynolds came with us.  It was pretty hot out but it was not to bad.  I played ok after I warmed up a little.  It was fun to be out and to have the afternoon off.

A bunch of us went to a minor league baseball game.  The Sky Socks are the Colorado Rockies farm team.  We watched the game for a while then came back to the training center.  When I got back here I watched tv and played some video games and went to bed.
