Just got in

After a long day of traveling, I finally checked into the training center. Pleasant surprise is I’ll be rooming with Kevin Tan. He is a good friend of mine who was also on the Olympic Team last year. I’ve known Kevin for a long time since he is originally from the Bay Area so it’ll be fun to be able to catch up with him.

Another thing I’m excited about is to see how much this place has changed since the last time I was here (the last time may have been a year ago) because they’re always doing renovations. I remember coming here for the first time over 10 years ago and not having a lot of the luxuries we have today. Today, there’s wireless internet all around the complex and a tv with cable and dvd in each of the rooms. They’ve also recently built a recovery center where they have everything from massage therapists to saunas and steam baths…yes they totally pamper the athletes here.

However, the thing I’m looking forward to the most is seeing all the familiar faces as this was my home for two years (2002-2004). Anyway, training starts tomorrow. Better get some rest!
