Uniform Swap

Posted under Races and Results

We all received our team uniform when we arrived in Cologne.  It’s made by Asics and comes from Japan, where the average athlete is clearly a lot smaller than we are.  I couldn’t pull up the tights over my thighs without difficulty.  Luckily we’ve been able to do some swaps, and an extra shipment will arrive here today from Australia.  I swapped with some of Jana’s gear- she doesn’t need hers. 

Around 10 athletes are competing today in different meets…Brussels, Germany, Amsterdam.  It must be hard for the 4*400m girls, they are still fighting for a spot on the team.  Weather today: cloudy and 31 degrees.
