Bolt in 3-4 more sleeps.....

So, I know I said the next post would be continuation of the beach, but! I am just too excited about the IAAF champs this weekend in Daegu that I had to write it down somewhere.  


It's hard to believe that we've been in Korea almost a year to the day, and that we've had this weekend planned pretty much since then.  


This Friday, we will take the KTX up to Daegu and cross our fingers for a place to lay our heads that night. Saturday was a 'maybe' for us because there aren't many key events that day, but we've decided to go on Friday night in order to catch the women's marathon that starts early Saturday morning.  (The marathon will follow the same course as the race the happened in April of this year, through downtown Daegu).


On Saturday, we have full day tickets reserved and we will take in some women's 1500m heats, some men's 400m heats, as well as final events in the women's long jump, men's 10,000m and..... da da da.... THE 100m FINAL!!!! AHHHHHH!!!!


Our tickets look really good, right at the start line, so I may end up with about one hundred pictures of Usain Bolt's bum. But hey! That's ok!


Anyways, this was just a quickie, and there will undoubtedly be a full recap after the actual event.
