Holding pattern…

November 5th and 6th

Saturday –   Well, today I spent about 2 hours walking and jogging around at Thompson Park while watching Hillsborough girls win the Central Jersey Group IV Championship and the Liberty boys have a pretty good run with Dan Duffy qualifying for Groups.   The girls pulled off a two-point upset victory.   This performance is another testament to the quality of coaching that Rich Refi  and Tierra Hicks Gourdine  bring to the Hillsborough  XC  program year after year.                                                                                                                My Achilles tendon progress seems to be stalled in place.  It is not bad.  Not noticeable at all while walking. But clearly there in a.m. and annoying any time I start to even jog.  So I am considering taking the advice of my poker friend, Matt, and just suspend all activities related to the legs for one week. No jog, no swim, no bike, no aggressive walking!   While considering this approach I have asked myself, “What do I do for that week? How do I spend my time?”   A daily workout has  become so much a part of my routine that I seem to be lost without one.   My conclusion is that I will spend an hour at least every other day in the weight room just getting BIG!

Sunday-   Arlene and I enjoyed a leisurely three-hour walk through the Grounds for Sculpture today surrounded by endless, fabulous, artistic stimulation. Then I watched the DVR of the Giants taking down  the Eagles.  A perfect autumn afternoon!
