The Year of Weird

So many things have been strange this year;

• I've only vaulted on my cut 4.45/14' 7" poles


• Though I've had tons of height I couldn't find a way to leave up 13'/3.97m in a meet


• The day I did I won my pit in Reno, got indoor PRs of 13' 1 1/2"/4m and 13' 5 1/4"/4.10m


• Got 4th at nationals at 13' - historic competition


• Trained through the winter and have not jumped in practice since October


• Doing off-season type training NOW, in the middle of what should be my outdoor season


• I'll jump maybe 5-6 more times this year, ALL in meets


• As soon as the season is over I start jumping 2-3 days a week working up from my very smallest poles


• I'll run four days a week and lift six and do bars on six to get ready for 2013 when I turn 60

I have no idea if and when I will compete in 2012. Weird for me. Thanks for your support! Bubba
