I think Becca should set up a booth where all the members of this forum can meet and get to know each other in person! We could have name tags with our login name.

You can always tell a master from anyone else.... or atleast you and your white helmet! I hope we get to see each other again and catch up on our pole vault stories!

Im trying to make a shirt with "Mecham" on it. It is my last name, so name tags would be cool too. ha ha

I'm quite broke after buying books this semester! Sorry I won't have name tags for you all.

The flyers I have are going to be whatever I have the time to print for free from the computer lab.

sadly, I waited until the last minute to book my trip and yet again had an unexpected large expense wipe out my travel funds. :(

Lucky girl! I have to teach a class tomorrow morning so I can't escape until the afternoon (as it is I'm missing a faculty meeting :crying: ). That means I won't arrive until late tomorrow night...after 9 o'clock.

I may have to cancel my competition plans though. I've been nursing a hip flexor injury that just won't go away (3 + weeks now!). So either I have to be grown up and admit that it wouldn't be prudent to try to jump when injured, or else throw caution to the wind and give it a try for fun. :eek:

I'm happy to hear advice.

Well Russ, if you are going to be there and you have paid your money, I think you should get yourself ready just as if it was a go. Do a real careful warmup and "test the water". You can always cancel at any time. Of course this is a comment by someone who doesn't know the seriousness of a "hip flexor" injury.

Do you have another meet scheduled soon after Reno? Do you have time to recover if the injury was further aggrevated? Those are the thoughts I would consider if I were in your shoes.
