I spent the latter part of last week at the Association for Applied Sport Psychology annual conference in Louisville, Kentucky. It was absolutely overwhelming in a great way! Imagine 10-14 hours each day of information overload of so much good junk in the world that is important to you... that is what I experienced from Thursday to Saturday. I attended lectures, workshops, colloquiums, and poster sessions on everything from coaching to athlete preparedness to meditation to neuropsychological effects of sport on relationships to mindfulness to race and ethnicity in sport... I can go on and on! The point is..I had a great time learning, networking, seeing old friends, making new friends, etc...
I took my camera on my runs to try to document some of the Louisville beauty but I couldn't really find much to capture - not to say that it wasn't unique - I just didn't feel too inspired when I was running there. I ran past the Muhammad Ali Center, along the Ohio river, past the Slugger Museum, through neighborhoods, across bridges...
I also met a man who works with team athletes at the Olympic training center in Colorado. His job sounded so awesome... there is so much to learn and so many cool ways to apply Sport Psychology to the world!
