Ankle work:

25 right leg calve raises

25 toe raises (stand on your heel)
25 calve raises, toes in/heels out
25 toe raises
25 calve raises, toes out/heels in

I definitely didn't work very hard out there today. Lots of young kids running around, which is cool. Unfortunately, the lack of experience out this week made the ultimate a bit sloppy so it was tough to get motivated to run hard when you could basically walk your defender out of position and jog a few steps and get wide open.

Took a lot of deep shots, not all of them good choices, but what's pick-up for anyway? When I rush my flick hucks they knife a lot. They get where they're going, but way too fast and with no float. I need to slow it down and flatten those throws out to allow receivers to run under them.

Ground was hard and uneven so it was a good test for my ankle. It held up fine, though it's a bit sore now. A good sore, nothing serious.
