Catching up

Well, what a trip -- after a 12 hour haul on Saturday, I was surprised I was up for training at all. I did a ton of conditioning during the holiday and made it to a 24 Hour Fitness on Tuesday to bench...then a 16 hour haul home on Wednesday. Nice trip, lots of driving.



Sunday (Christmas)
*My wife and I took a three or so mile jog. It was balls cold in Missouri, so we bundled up. It was actually a bit refreshing and the cool air was very crisp. Nice rural community with a town square and all (not my hometown or hers). We jogged through downtown and into a large nice midwestern park and back around through some side streets.

Monday
*My wife and I did hill sprints in aforementioned park. Pretty steep and long, but much colder than Sunday. It was in the mid-twenties, which brings back memories, but not fond ones.

*Monday we made the drive to Kansas City (which was about five hours), stopping along the way a few times for memories. When we arrived in KC, I felt all pent up and went for another jog before dinner. I went another three or so miles through a very sketchy neighborhood into a not so sketchy neighborhood where I ran a few hills. I then proceeded back into the sketchiness and am still around to tell the tale.

Tuesday
*My wife and I went on the same jog I did the night before. All the hoodlums were still sleeping, so instead of sketchiness it was just grimey. Oh well.
