7/15/24

Today was MY official first day of the cycle. Being away at cross country camp at Wake Forest kept me from starting on Saturday like everyone else. I woke up today and immediately got cracking on requirements to catch up. Luckily I am almost completely caught up, just an extra round of push-ups, sit-ups, burpees, and all my jump rope from the past 3 days to do (doesn't sound too bad). It took some time and a lot of balanced thoughts to make it through today. Transitioning from training hard everyday at camp, always having someone to talk to and something to do, to having little to do, was definitely challenging. I also assisted with class this evening and took part in the first (I believe) 2nd Dan and higher class at the Lake Norman location; I enjoyed working on the high level stuff. Overall, was a very productive day and can't wait to wake up and do it all over again.
