Life, Vaulting, and Balance: July 2011
http://jvaulter.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 27, 2011. Here's an example of what happens when you squat a lot all week and then vault on friday. My low take-off makes me squash the pole and then go straight up and straight down while my feet are forced to fall out. It was a good practice though! Location: Lawrence, KS, USA. Saturday, July 23, 2011. GREAT Practice Last Night! Last night Ryan, Kevin, and I vaulted and I had one of the best practices I've ever had! I was really excited to get on that pole at this time in the year. ...

Life, Vaulting, and Balance: January 2012
http://jvaulter.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 21, 2012. 537m at the Pole Vault Summit. Height: 5.37m or 17' 7.25". Pole: 5m - 14.5. Boy did I get dominated by Brad Walker. haha. That was such a fun competition last night though! Nine of the country's best vaulters competing in front of 1500 pole vault fanatics. you just can't beat that. The energy in the arena was unreal and it got LOUD. My jumping didn't amount to the hype I tried to create on my last post, but man am I close to doing some big things! Location: Reno, NV, USA.

Life, Vaulting, and Balance: December 2011
http://jvaulter.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 22, 2011. This was a couple months ago, so I apologize for the delay. I've gotten better at them since then and can now go forwards when I want to and backwards when I want to, unlike in that video where I accidentally went backwards before I went forwards, haha. Here's another trick we learned how to do. Yea yea, I know it's on the chick bars but it's fun as hell to do! I feel so close but so far from getting it. This concludes today's update, but there's a lot more to come! I'm so be...

Friday, September 30, 2011. She said yes on last Friday night, Sept 23, 2011. I had it all planned out for the weeks prior and finally popped the question. My knees were shakin worse than Baylor's when Texas A&M decided to leave the Big XII. I had bought the ring a few months ago and man is that a tough thing to hide when you live together! But she was completely surprised when I got down on my knee and she loved all of it! So I guess now I can call her my fiance! Location: Lawrence, KS, USA. Can I do wh...
