Just thought I'd, might as well, start a thread.
any links to these twitter practice reports?
And Alissa (again per FSU practice reports) finally showed up and to quote FSU poster IceAlisa she did 'AWESOME!'
I have a good feeling about these Nationals.
I posted this elsewhere but I'll post it here again-@DougMattis tweet:

Sr Ladies Grp C on ice @USFigureSkating and Mirai and Agnes look particularly fit and fast over the ice. Sitting with Agnes's mom-so nice.

@ @Eris_27 Yes--Mirai opens her long with a screamin' fast 3loop2toe, and then the DA3toe.

As a former Frank student, you get to know the body-language. When he crosses his arms for Mirai, he is saying "No shenanigans. DO IT."

@USFigureSkating Mirai just did an amazing long program with every triple and spin. Frank has uncrossed his arms. #fFrankCarrolRules

Thanks Sasha'sSpins. Glad to hear that the ladies look to be in top form. I can't wait for tonight!
I have a friend who is there. She has not seen any practices but she just called me and said she ran into Mirai and that Mirai was super chatty and kind and seemed excited and talked to her for about 5 minutes before Mirai was abruptly like 'oh but-I have to go!'. She mostly would/did not discuss figure skating but she calls Frank Mr. Carrol and did say that she loves 'everything about' how he coaches her and that she would travel twice as far to get to keep working with him. She also did say she is training triple toe triple toes and triple lutz triple toes and that she thinks they are 'really great' but that 'Mr Carrol will know' when she is ready to do them in competition. She just laughed when my friend asked about the triple axle rumor/reports.
