The Goal

I've attempted many things in my life. I've also failed at a bunch of junk too; afterward deciding that it just wasn't for me. Water Polo was one of those things where I failed miserably.

Sometime during middle school I signed up for a two-week water polo program at the local aquatic center. This was a great opportunity for me as I wasn't a consistent swimmer before hand, and I thought I could learn a cool sport in the process. Little did I know that it would be the hardest thing I've ever tried (at that age). I was so exhausted after every single day for the first week that I decided to not go the entire second week.

I've never really thought about picking it up again as I figured it just wasn't for me. For some reason now when water polo was poked back into my head, I realized I was living in a completely different situation. First off, 50 times stronger and more athletically fit. Secondly, I'll have easy access to a pool everyday from now on until school starts up again in the fall. It will also keep me busy in between work and my beloved trails that I run in Davis.

The Plan:
I will work on getting better at water polo everyday. Hopefully I'll post about the stuff I learn, and how I do it. And this is my first post!
