SHATTERED!

It is TRUE, that, “Records are Made to be Broken”! No one knows when or where it will happen, but it WILL, eventually, HAPPEN!

JAVELIN… A FAMILY TRADITION!

As a High School Student, a couple, which I held in high regard, once told me, “You are the Raw Material from which your Children begin their lives!”  Furthermore, they added, “It is important that you look after your Children’s Children, because they will be the Future!”  Unlike so many at that age, that made […]

RYAN HUNTING…

                   For some of you, this Title may seem unusual, or it may give you reason to believe that one (1) benefit of being a Javelin Thrower is that it makes Hunting with a Spear a more viable option for putting Food on the table. All of that is, […]

JUMPIN’ JAE-CION!

          There are always two (2) things to accomplish at Championship Events… 1) Set a New PR (Personal Record), and 2) Qualify for a Medal!  Ideally, an Athlete would like that Medal to be GOLD, but that is ONLY achieved by one (1) person.           With more […]
