Tired and sore

Today was a good day. Had to work on the other side of town all day which helped the day go by faster. Then had a great one-on-one session with Master Knight and was able to work on the things I missed from last night's Black Belt class (went to a sparring class at another school), as well as overcoming my fear of falls, rolls, and general take-downs. I learned a long time ago that gravity hurts, and I don't bounce back as quickly as I used to.  ;-)   After that I had a nice 2-mile run with my new running partner. Looking forward to the day when I can leave the intervals behind. One day at a time. One milestone at a time.

great day
