If you can’t tell, I’m a fan of alliteration. Anyways, today was a pretty big day of rest for me. I really want my ankle/Achilles to recover from whatever its been going through. Since the fall racing season has basically come to an end, I want to hit the track season up nice and strong with no minor injuries. Next race will probably be towards the end of January, hopefully on an Indoor Track. Next up for training is in New England for 2 weeks working out with my brother, a member of the crew team at Cornell. Always a great guy to work out with. At the end of our respective sessions, we play a little one on one basketball but rarely finish the games because one of us ends up getting a little too upset. Isn’t that right, Alex?

Today’s run with Louie at the track was great. 30 minutes (about 4 miles) went by pretty quick and his questions are always so entertaining. They make me think so much about my own training and why my technique and idiosyncrasies are for warm ups, cool downs, starting line jitters, etc. Achilles felt alright but definitely needs to be strengthened. Will start some physical therapy sessions this week at a sports clinic in addition to incorporating massages into my schedule.

Glad that the Patriots got their 10th win and that Aaron Rodgers posted big numbers for my fantasy team.

Hope everyone had a great weekend. We Are One 365.
