I moved into the Olympic Training Center today as a resident athlete. Unfortunately, the resident dorms were flooded a few months back and repairs are not yet finished, so I have been relegated to the barracks. These three cinder block buildings – relics left from when the campus was an air force base – are normally for short term athletes, and are located away from the main athlete center. After two short-term stays out here, the barracks are old hat for me, but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t hopeful for a private bathroom, larger-than-twin bed and a cold-weather-free walk to the cafeteria.
