Yesterday as I mentioned I went up to Cornell after school and video taped Katie and Bernie. It went really well!!!!! Bernie explained the details of Katie's injury, and what was done immediately after the injury, and the rehab process. I even video taped some new exercises Katie was learning to do, with explanations at the same time. I am very thankful for their help, and I'm hoping the film came out okay, which I will be looking at this weekend...
Today their was a STAC track meet at IHS track, and I met Kim in the training room after school. We embarked on our journey out in the rain, feeling miserable and tired. We set up our spot in a prime spot to watch high jumpers, and had a great view of the track. It was mostly pretty slow, their was occasional people wanting ice, to be stretched, or taped. Kim had to attend to some athletes who had gotten injured during their race. Injuries during this time included head, ankle, and shoulder sprains. As for me, I held down the fort with Kim and gave out my first bandaid and pre-wrap!!!! Most of the coaches and athletes thought I was a real trainer, so that was nice to hear. Although I didn't do anything I wasn't certified to do, don't worry! Kim talked me through many injuries that she's had in the past week, and explained injuries to me as athletes came for check-ups. Kim, as usual was oh so very helpful and continued to offer me a spot in the cart for the next sporting event. Games are winding down as seasons end, but their is a boys lacrosse game next week which are assured to be very entertaining.
