Ty343 67 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 In today’s article I will be showing the day in the life of current Philadelphia Reaper, Mikey Harris. Today was an off day which meant that his day looked a little different than usual. Mikey woke up around 7 to get ready for some online classes he takes because he is still at the young age of 16. Before these classes start he’ll eat a big breakfast, most likely a lot of bacon or some waffles. After spending about three hours in his first part of the school day, he gets off for some time. He will usually take this time to eat lunch and maybe watch some TV while he’s at it. His lightest meal of the day is usually his lunch, which is probably something like a sandwich or some soup. After he eats he’ll go back to his classes for about 3 hours and then he will be free for the day. He’ll grab a quick snack and then drive over with his brothers to the local rink. Since both of his brothers played in the VHLM they know what Mikey needs to work on and the best ways to do it. He’ll open with some sprints to get his conditioning up, then work on improving on his skating, positioning, puck handling and strength. He’ll finish off with multiple shooting drills and then play in a couple of pickup games with the locals. This can take 3-4 hours and by the time he gets home he is dead tired. As soon as he gets in the house he’ll take a hot shower, and then eat a big meal, something with a ton of meat. Maybe a steak, or rice or pasta with a lot of baked chicken. His brothers will come over at this time and go over film from the last couple of games as well as watch certain VHL players that they can learn from. He spends extensive watching the Calgary Wranglers because that is the team he is hoping to play for next season in the major leagues. He knows he won’t be getting a lot of playing time in the beginning of his VHL career so he isn’t expecting to do crazy things stat wise, but he still hopes he can make a difference for the team, no matter how small it is. After this he is free for the day, and he might head out into the city, stay home and watch a movie or catch up on some shows, or maybe get some school work done early. On a game day he would usually be out of the house for most of the day which means that he would sleep as soon as he got home, but today he decided to take a drive into the city and check in with some of his friends. Mikey used to spend a lot of time with his friends before his hockey career skyrocketed so he tries to spend time with them as much as possible. Instead of coming straight home Mikey went to the gym to get some weight training in as he is currently trying to become stronger for the season. He came home around 11 and finally went to sleep, preparing for his upcoming game the next day.
