Dear so John

I am as sore as you always say you are. I am sore in my shoulders and legs between 9 Round clients kicking, King Tiger clients making me fall I am sore. I see you did 90 burpees in your spartan work out yesterday geez are you crazy. You must be but then again I guess that is why you are sore.

The work out for the Spartan as I understand it was

1. 30 Burpess with the Spartan 22 lb Ram

2. Hang with 20 knee tucks

3. 10 minute max out jog at 15% incline

4. log squats 30

3 rounds so I hope you get ready for the first Race in February.

Well good luck you are going to need it.

Good Afternoon

There are some exciting things coming up in 2020, I turn 60, I have some weird family news coming in and I am testing for my 6th. So exciting times are coming my way and looking forward to seeing what the future the up an downs along the way. Need to keep pushing remind myself to keep pushing and always have some help with my friends to keep me on track.

I am working way to much with my environmental work, 9Round and KTA Fitness. So this is going to be a challenge but need to continue to make time and work on a goal. I still live in Matthews and commute a lot to get my training completed. I have more excuses than most but need to put them aside. So here we go and see you on the other side.
