Things to look forward to…

October 1, 2008

Austin, Texas- hey guys!  it’s been a really amazing month since i returned from the games!  just wanted to let you know that i’m still going to keep up with the site and give you an idea about where i see this going…

first things first… i want to thank all of the children, teachers, and administrators back in Birmingham for letting me come and share with them.  to be honest, i was extremely nervous about the whole thing.  i didn’t really think people, much less short attention-spanned kids, would want to hear what i had to say.  but after it was all over, i want to do it again!  it was so cool!  i am still waiting to hear back from a teacher or two in order to get a media release for a child.  then, i’ll put the pictures from my visit up here!!

while home, i also got to spend some time with my nephew (B-dub (baby wyatt)… i’m hoping that nickname sticks!!), visit friends, and spend time with family.  it was nice, but way too short.  i had a late start getting back because my good friend, Jeff Cutrer, got married the weekend before.  it was a pretty ceremony and an awesome reception, both of which were right down the road from where i live.  i left birmingham sooner than i’d hoped because they were going to honor the longhorn olympians at the UT vs. Rice football game.  that was a special experience for me because i had dreamed about it since i saw the 2004 Longhorn olympians recognized during my first couple of weeks on campus.

ok, i’m back in austin for good now.  i’ve started a somewhat structured routine in preparations for the 2009 season the past couple of weeks.  and as for this site, i think it would be neat for you guys to see a little of what i do on a day-to-day basis.  so i may take my camera along for a run, a workout, or weightroom session… who knows?

i’d like to hear what you guys want to see… so just leave a comment on this thread and i’ll see what i can do!

    Trey,

    As a former vaulter current HS coach it’s nice to read what you are up to in life and on the track. I enjoyed experiencing the Olympics through your eyes by reading your blog. Text/photos/video are all good. Keep it coming.

    Trey,

    Keep your head up and work hard. Great to see you have turned your life to the Lord. Your Faith is the most important thing for your future.

    Look forward to seeing you soon. Let me know if there’s anything we can do to help you out. Hartwig is our new Pacer Ambassador, so if you need an PV stuff, call him up.
