Ever feel like neglecting to blog is like bad parenting?
Or maybe I'm nutty...

Failed to record this week's adventures.
RECAP: Some workouts with my brothers, some Krav Maga, some jetskis.
SO FAR BEHIND OFFICIAL WOD!
Not even kidding.

Its been way too long.
TAD--no internet connectivity.
I am still working out, still following CrossFit, not always the exact WOD, but always the CF methodology.
Teaching a MCMAP Gray Belt class while in MIOC at Dam Neck, VA.
Trying to eat zonishly, vaguely, trying... if I'm not its Panera's fault--not my own!
Gotta stay strong.
