I had a day off from training so today I went to the Oakland Coliseum with my mom to watch the A’s-Mariners game.  It’s hard to say which team I like better because while Oakland is my home town, my favorite athlete, Ichiro Suzuki is on the Mariners.  As an athlete, I look up to Ichiro because he’s so consistent and calm under pressure.

Anyway, the game was super exciting because Ichiro started off the game with a double, and he became the second fastest player in the Major League history to record 2,000 hits!!!  It was inspiring to be able to see that in person.  It immediately made me want to get in the gym and start working out.  Well, it’s a good thing that training for the new week starts again tomorrow!

Ichiro!
