Slow Burn


My formula for living is quite simple.
I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. 
In between, I occupy myself as best I can.
~ Cary Grant


After two days of rest. I am tired. What?! HRV is saying enjoy more rest. Ok. Listening. No heavy lifts this week, just some good old fashioned playing with toys.

Could be the rainy weather, could be a lot of time on deck. Saturday was crazy good fun at the meet, kids did amazing and it was muggy and warm. Tried to stay hydrated.

Sunday ended up being rest and a movie with the tween girls, hello Monsters U! I couldn't stay up past  9pm and thought I'd be ready for some fun come this morning. Well, it was rainy at practice, which isn't a big deal, but it was just different. Lots of volume, lower energy morning. Quick day of work. Nap! Oh yes, it felt good. Heavy rain finally arrived. It was a bit of a cocoon.

So, GREAT class tonight, even pace. Huge burner though! Slow burn. Working and working on intricacies, balance, form, engage. The snatch was a bruiser from the ground every time. Loved it!

FIND YOUR CREW!

I Needed That

Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.
