Don't listen to those who say, 'You're taking too big a chance.' Michelangelo would have painted the Sistine floor, and it would surely be rubbed out by today

I know know lol

Its been forever since I last posted a blog. Twitter has replaced my blogging this summer. 

Well anyway. I'm going to try and be more consistent and even change it up a little adding more stuff that's not track related. So be prepared for more quotes (because we all know I love them). I'm not going to go over the last few weeks. I look forward always not backwards.  : )


I'm off to Doha this week for the training camp prior to the Common Wealth Games in New Delhi. I'm both excited (to be going to the CWG) but nervous (after seeing the list of things to by in boots, so as not to get sick). Lets just say I have my own person 'First Aid' kit for this trip. 



So lets see how long I can keep the effort up of blogging.

Chat soon

GI Joice

"no man has gone into war, and seen what they've seen and came back the same."






Experience is the best teacher right?. Your eyes and you heart can not deceive you. I have a couple of friends that would EASILY fall into the 'Prize F'up' category  when it comes to decisions they have made in their life. I have found myself many times  sitting with a blank look on my face as they fill me in with their latest chapter of self destruct.  


On the other hand though I have some pretty hard wired friends. The determined type that know what they want, how to get it and where to go looking for it.   Ive was described as COLD recently.  I gave the statement about 5 seconds worth of thought (had to be polite) and kept it moving. The Joice of some 4 years ago would have let this disturb her sleep, and we all know how much I like my sleep. lol 


But, for real COLD? Was that supposed to hurt? Be that gut punch that made me double over and gasp for breath. I've seen and been through enough to know COLD is a good look to have right about now. 


That means people should know if they are coming to me with BS they are not looking for the generic reaction.  I will find plan B, C and go all the way to Z if I have to  before I will throw in the towel in defeat.  We Maduaka's are strong stock. lol


    I see  life  these days  like the military. There are going to be battles along the way and I'm a surviver. I used to date a guy in the military who I used to call  "Army Boy". Yeah I know really original. lol .  Seeing what he had seen at war had opened his eyes and his sense. But, he was always as he put it "Combat Ready" .  At the time I used to laugh. You see I was going through my LIVE YOUR LIFE and HAPPY HAPPY PEOPLE phase.


But for real Combat Ready is not necessarily a bad thing. Shit!! at least your prepared if you need to ball up them fists.


So just call me GI Joice
