I’ve been back in training for about two months now. Everything is going to plan and I’m enjoying every session. It’s great to feel my body adapting week by week and to see improvements. My current assessment of everything up this point: so far, so good. Away from training, I was lucky enough to spend one of my rest days at Sky News this week. I’m very fortunate to have Sky supporting my training and also helping me pursue interests outside of athletics, and that’s what makes the Sports Scholarships scheme so unique. I’ve always been a bit of a news and current affairs geek so seeing everything first hand was like an early Christmas present. A fast-paced newsroom is a nice change of scenery. Training at this time of year is all about being patient and putting together small improvements in preparation for the competition season. It’s a gradual process, which can seem detached from the world away from the confines of the track and the weights room. That’s something I love about winter training but it’s good to have things to break up the long off-season.As I probably won’t be competing before late March, everything I do is geared towards a set of medium to long-term goals. Working on a constantly changing news story with a tight deadline approaching is right at the other end of the spectrum, so I got a real buzz out of being up against the clock in a way that didn’t involve a stopwatch.My day started by meeting one of the Executive Producers in charge of the afternoon show and the rest of the time was spent shadowing the producers tasked with preparing material for the broadcast. In the morning I watched a news package being put together based on a major court sentence – and it ended up being the top story in the afternoon.DeadlineI went through video material sent in from reporters and then sat in on the producer and editor who put together the finished package, bringing the report, video and graphics together as the clock ticked down to the 2 o’clock deadline.Later on I sat in the broadcast gallery in front of what seemed like thousands of buttons and nearly as many video monitors, as the director and executive producer oversaw the live broadcast. It was eye-opening to watch and without doubt one of the most memorable things I’ve done thanks to Sky.Seeing the whole team adapting on the spot to the latest events was really impressive and it was striking to watch the team responding to breaking news and having to prioritise stories, fact check, coordinate with reporters outside the studio and guests across the country, all whilst keeping to a schedule - just a normal day to everyone else but enthralling to watch as an outsider.So overall, things are going well. I was keen to get in to Sky News before Christmas as I’m off to train in Florida for the first few months of next year. 2015 is coming round very quickly which makes me realize a big chunk of winter training is already in the bag.I’m excited and it will be great to get in the warmth to continue the good run of training. There’s plenty to look forward to in the New Year and I’m sure that before I know it, the competition season will be just around the corner. Lonnie Shelton Jersey . Only three players drafted by NHL clubs were included on the Czech selection camp roster on Wednesday.

Artturi Lehkonen, Joni Nikko and Ville Leskinen had the other goals for Finland (1-0) while Juuse Saros stopped 28 shots. Tim Robin Johnsgard had the lone goal for Norway (0-2). https://www.supersonicsjerseys.com/120s-al-wood-jersey-supersonics.html . The defence is doing its part, too. Drew Brees threw a pair of touchdown passes in the first half and the guys on the other side made sure that was enough, sending the Saints to a 17-13 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday night. Dennis Johnson Jersey .Y. -- Jayna Hefford scored the winning goal Friday as Canada survived a scare with a 4-3 win over Sweden at the Four Nations womens hockey tournament. Custom Seattle Supersonics Jerseys . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A day after the most embarrassing loss in his NFL tenure, Jacksonville Jaguars coach Gus Bradley still had a job.And it seemed to be causing him some angst.Bradley expressed frustration Friday with his teams lack of discipline during a 36-22 drubbing at Tennessee , which came five days after an equally humbling home loss to Oakland.Rookie cornerback Jalen Ramsey was penalized for hitting a player well out of bounds in the first quarter and defensive end Dante Fowler Jr. was flagged for throwing a punch early in the second.Theres never an excuse for not playing with great effort, Bradley said during a conference call with reporters. We wont, cannot and will not tolerate lack of discipline, things under our control. We have a standard that we place. If youre not meeting that standard, get your butt going.The Jaguars (2-5) got their butts kicked in prime time Thursday night, showing little skill and even less self-control in losing to one of the franchises former coaches for the second straight week. It dropped Bradleys career record to 14-41 in three-plus seasons in Jacksonville. Owner Shad Khan decided against making a coaching change Friday, and Bradley vowed to keep his staff status quo during the small break.The Jaguars play at Kansas City on Nov. 6.Its uncertain whether Bradley will make any major adjustments before then. What is clear is his dissatisfaction with penalties, including Fowlers penchant for committing silly ones.Its selfish and with those acts there are consequences, Bradley said. I mean every player is different. I mean if theres a guy thats really riled up, Im not going to put him in the situation where hes going to hurt the team. So I think to say that everybody is treated equally, well every situation is different, and knowing the players and knowing where theyre at and thats the decision I have to make.Fowlers flag turned a 15-yard completion into a 30-yard play and helped the Titans build a 17-0 lead. Fowler, the third overall ppick in the 2015 NFL draft, was benched for the remainder of the half.dddddddddddd He has been flagged eight times this season, including twice for personal fouls.The antics came just five days after a late meltdown against the Raiders. Receiver Marqise Lee was flagged for using a racial slur. Defensive tackle Malik Jackson was ejected after picking up two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, including one for using abusive language toward an official. And Ramsey was tossed for fighting.Guys got to make smart decisions, Bradley said. You dont want them to play with anxiety and be uptight and think that everything they do wrong theyre going to get yanked out of the game. But they also have to understand that things that affect our team, and ones that are under their control, at times, have consequences and theyve got to do right and theyve got to make smart decisions. I think were more going about it that way.Regardless, the bigger issue is figuring out how Jacksonville was flat and listless for the second straight week. Players looked uninspired, digging themselves another early hole and showing little, if any, ability to climb out. They trailed 27-0 at halftime, and although the offenses ineptitude was no surprise, the defense gave up 354 yards.And that happened three days after Khan addressed players and coaches for the second time in less than a month.On Friday, Bradley met with his team without the owner present. Bradley still believes in his players and insists they need to play looser and with more poise.I think the way you lay it out to get that anxiety out is that when you believe in people, you have to be honest with them, Bradley said. It was a very honest meeting. And I think when they know, clearly understand the expectations and whats ahead of them, you relieve some of that.---More AP NFL: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
