So today it got serious. The first two sessions were inspiring. I expected some new exercises and some confimation on my understanding of the javelin. Sometimes it helps a lot when somebody tells you things you already know but in other words.
This morning we learned more than that and I think its a big change. A change that will hurt. All new exercises will hurt but also adjustments to the technique. Not mayor adjustment but enough to hurt.....a lot.
In my opinion we have a choice.
1) we continue what we are doing for the last year and have a chance of a medal in Paralympics 2012.
2) we take it a level higher and let Ferenc lead the way to GOLD.
Ronald and I discussed both option over diner. While I was eating my salad and Ronald a small horse... we knew it can only be option 2!
Will it be the end of us working together ? Maybe just the opposit. We take a big chance. Not only wil he train his ass off, but he must realize that also the time between the trainingsessions will get him were he wants to be in 2012. He need to make sure he has a good diet, he will rest enough, he doesn't get distracted, keep focused and above all.... keep fit. Listen to his body, expect and endure some pain but knowing when to stop or slowdown to avoid injuries.
In other words.... we started a seriously exciting journey. Let's hope Ronald still feels like this tomorrow morning :-)
