Hello! My name is Sarah Peirce and I am a 60m (and sometimes 300m) sprinter for the University of Guelph. I recently graduated university with a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences and specializations in Molecular Biology and Genetics as well as Geography.
At the moment I am attempting to finish my packing check list for my trip to the Czech Republic. Assuming all goes according to plan, this Monday I will be leaving Canada with my coach, Zuzana Mares, and several of my team mates for Prague! I was lucky enough to travel with Zuzu last year to the Czech where I trained and competed in some small meets. This year I have been invited back to compete for one of the clubs in the 100m and the 4x100m relay ! Awesome. While I am trying to be excited for the trip, with the danger of volcanoes erupting and potential airport strikes I would have to say I am more nervous than excited right now. The group and I have been training hard for the last month preparing for the trip. In fact in the last two weeks we have been doing two practices a day…every day. Anyway I think this is a good start to my blogging career. The next blog I post should be from Prague, wish us luck!
