Wassup Team Monday!  Hope the weekend was a great one for everyone!  I was back in my college town of Madison, Wisconsin this past weekend, living it up with some of my old college pals.  An old roommate of mine was getting married, which proved a great excuse to get the bros together and reenact some undergrad adventures.

The weather in Madison was just gorgeous, so we hit up the green for a nice 18 holes Saturday afternoon.  I can’t say I did very well, or even respectable for that matter, but I had fun.  Afterward, we went to the batting cages to smack some baseballs; an activity I was only mildly better at.  Nonetheless, it was a real blast, and I realized how much I miss incorporating activities into exercising.  Running and cycling are great workouts, and provide their own set of rewards, but nothing is as fun as team exercise.  I suppose that is why I love races so much; they are events with hundreds of people all striving for the same goal.  I really miss being on a team, and I think I’m going to try and incorporate more group or event exercise into my life.  Exercise doesn’t seem like quite the chore when you’re enjoying it.

See y’all next week.
