If you are coming here and you haven’t done homework or college type classes recently, be prepared to get back up to speed. MLA/APA documentation is in a lot of what we are doing. I think I’m getting it. I also have a ton of reading assignments to get caught up on. I’m not complaining, I’m just keeping Sadie informed of how important reading and writing are ;-).
The best parts of the day are our conversations with others. I am learning a ton from people here. I am surprised daily by ideas others have and how they manage their offices. It’s humbling to be with these people, they are hugely important to their agencies.
Got my mile in the pool this morning, I’m at 5.5 miles now, feeling ok!
11,785 steps = 5.58 miles (consistent! Ha)
Best part of my day though is PT! Walked into PT class room to Iowa’s very own Matt Hughes taking care of biznass! This was part of “putting fire in our belly” before our workout! It worked. We also got some valuable information about some useless calories (drinks) and how alcohol affects us strength wise after you consume more then 5 drinks. Our instructor is very knowledgeable and relates well to us. Our class loves him and his style of motivation.
Today’s workout was single arm floor press-work to a heavy 3 reps each arm. Work to a heavy 3 reps unsupported lawnmowers.
After that in the gym with a kettlebell (35lbs for me). 5 swings, walk with straight arm extended over head to the end of the mat, then 5 goblet squats and then walk back, same arm. 5 mins on 1 min rest, then 5 more minutes with our other arm.
Lunch
This is where we put our back packs while we eat. It fills up!
A picture taken here at Quantico...we run through the woods on the Yellow Brick Road at the end. This bear better watch himself!
Eli wants to know why the bear needs to watch himself. He also says to write he wants a Lego set. Haha! I can't figure out what's on that screen! Lunch looks good! Healthy!
