Dave Hann training circa 1987If 2020 were a normal year (and it has been anything but), the Tomcats would be in their final week of pre-season conditioning. Chevy would be wrapping up his 15km weekly runs, Snowpants would be waxing his pants and knee pads to allow for frictionless sliding across the floor, Falcon would be thinking about putting his equipment back in the bag (who’s kidding…it is still in there from the last night of hockey in March), dedicated Tomcats would be meeting at the Kapusta to make sure the stage, floor and Tomcat Room were ready for the season.
However, none of that is to be this week. Instead, Tomcat Management is preparing a questionnaire to gauge interest and concerns for a November start. Be on the lookout for this shortly.
Rest assured, other planning is happening. Start of the year gifts are being ordered, Stevo is blocking his calendar for the week before and after the February tournament so he can get into his “Tomcat Christmas” mindset, Rocky has purchased extra backup chargers for his phone to handle the rash of Tuesday afternoon calls and texts about who is playing or not, and Killer has placed an order for new, fancy garden gloves.
So with the extra training/conditioning time allotted this year, what will YOU do to prepare for the eventual start of Tomcat hockey? Let us know. We hear Chevy is looking for running partners on Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings.
This is how Tomcats typically train
Rocky and Bullwinkle hard at work preparing for the season start in November!
