Still Kickin'

Overall awesome day!  Except for going to the wrong track(palm slaps forehead), I was really proud of myself today.  Ran 4 miles without walking or stopping, decent time.  I feel I set the bar pretty high for myself on almost everything physically.  No mistakes on poomsaes during the pre test.  Raced over to the Harrisburg dojang right after class was dismissed to teach a class.  Also got in a mentee session.  Looking forward to a nice rest day tomorrow with some possible icy Hot patches.  Have a great weekend everyone!
