I'm just waiting for Tom to come by. Then he, Mary Lou and I will head out to dinner, I'm voting for Chinese, and then watch Fury.

You learn alot there about everything about athletics - stretching, relaxation, food/health, specific routines for specific development, training, and access to alot of the upper echelon people and equipment.

I remember we used to raid the cafeterias and ate a TON to make up for the thousands of calories that we were burning.

It was alot of fun.

Sipping some Sterling Chardonnay in the patio. Watching the filtered sunlight play with the leaves over the pond. Listening to the stereo shuffle through some odd stuff ... Blue Danube right now, Sir Paul McCartney earlier.

I can relate ... somewhat ... played football, baseball and wrestled in h/s and some college.

You ever make it to the Velodrome in Los Angeles?

oh I wrestled a bit in college too
That was "okay" was 2nd inter<whatever> in one season.
I really didn't know what I was doing. But because my legs and body was so strong no one could take me off my feet and I was able to lift people off the ground, rotate them, and slam them down on their back. My legs literally were like tree trunks from squats and everything for sprinting. Now their more like tree branches.

[astroNikon]

well I did race MTB in the 90s in Colorado, west of Colorado Springs .... but that's abot it. Crested Butte, and other places I can't recall right now. that was so much fun.
