Off to Las Vegas

After
volleyball practice I will leave for Las Vegas for the NSCA Convention. Going
to Las Vegas is not something I look forward to, I am not into gambling, smoking,
drinking and crowds, but it is chance to catch up with friends and professional
colleagues. I can’t help but reflect back to my first NSCA Convention in Los
Angeles in 1983. Most of the attendees were coaches. The personal training
thing was in the future. It will be interesting to see the composition of the
attendees. I am looking forward to attending Dan Bakers, Jim Radcliffe’s and
Tracy Fober’s talks after that I when I am not at the Foster-Miller Booth representing
their innovative Physiological Monitoring System I will hang out in the research
presentations. Sunday I fly to the Colorado Spring for three days at the
Olympic Training Center for a gathering of coaches from USA Curling. It will be
fun to be involved in a different sport.
