Wrestling Blogs - Ben Askren

We are running down to the end of our second training camp, but it is still hard to fathom that I will be in Beijing in less than ten days. I think it is all going to hit me like a ton of bricks really soon. I feel like I am very prepared to wrestle anybody in the world, Coach Mesenbrink has been doing some very good scouting for me and I realize that everyone in the world has weaknesses and I just have to exploit them. Training has been going very well with the exception on some minor nagging injuries. Yesterday, Coach Mesenbrink, coach Charles, Max and I went up into the mountains and did a little whitewater rafting with Buffalo Joes in Buena Vista. It was my second time going and it was a blast, I highly reccommend it if you make it up into the mountains. So now that FloJoe is here the flonation wont be kept in the dark about what is happening at training camp. I hope you get to enjoy a bunch of good videos. Next time you hear from me I will be in Beijing.
