Well, it feels like it has been a while since I have typed a few words to find their place upon the information superhighway. Since I last cared to elaborate on my daily happenings, I believe that my mom and sister had just gotten done visiting me... again, such good times.
Sunday [10/8] was a day of relaxation... well, fresh aire at least. It was relaxing to go and prance around the trails out at Harbison. It was a beautifully splendid morning when my roomie and I went to go and stretch our ever-aging legs out and see what we could do.... not for time or anything, just to see if we couls still run the trails at a decent clip, without sprained ankles, bruised feet or some other travesty that has hindered our runing in the past. Well, it was a good run... abut 10K worth, which definately woke me up for the day. Other than that, I just wound up doing some studying and playing in the intramural football game that night [our last regular season game... and we wound up with a record of 4-0 since we won that one as well; on to the playoffs!!!]. I wish that I would have some pics from Harbison that I could throw up here or some pics from the game... yet, alas, I am shortchanging my site and the eyes that are layed upon it as I do not hold such a valued commodity. However, I did see a mercedes that was painted taxi-yellow... intreaguing choice of colors to say the least [since the car spoke volumes for itself!!!]
Moving on...
Monday... oh what a day and how I thoroughly enjoyed it... on call. The only trauma that I was aware of was a guy who wound up getting in a car accident, going back to surgery and dying on the OR table because he bled out from a ruptured/lacerated IVC. Not too cool.
Tuesday... took this day to go and work out a bit, doing what I shall dub "CONSUELA"... because afterwards, you really felt like your muscles Can Swell A with pain... ok, totally less heterosexual now than I was about two sentences ago, but anywho.
Consuela - 3 sets for time of:
400 m
25 box jumps
15 med ball reverse overhead throws
25 situps
25 supermans
... then after this, do 3 sets of 20 pullups supersetted with 10 military presses
Talk about a burn... Oh Consuela, how I love thee!!! and how she takes my every loving muscle and cranks the pain intensity higher and higher as I succumb to my masochostic ways... at least with working out.
So, Yocum and I did this in the bubble and we ran into rusty and I figured that I would take a pic of some pole vault poles... if fact this is what all this training seems to be lending itself too... the hope to get my back strong and get in shape to do some good pole vaulting next spring and summer before residency comes and those things may get stomped to bits [poor dreams... must hold... on... to... ahhhhh].
Also, I got caught up with Grey's Anatomy... I know, I should not have to 'catch-up' however for some reason I did not get a chance to see it last week. Nonetheless, I am ready and rearing to go for this week's episode.
As far as the rest of the week goes up until this point, I will redeem myself later and return when the clock is later than it is presently.
Have a wonderfully splendid day... it is gorgeous outside here today!!!

First of all, I'm glad you added a post so the pic of me is no longer at the top.
Secondly, you and ben are really becoming a bunch of old men! Haha! j/k. Glad the old crossfit is treating you well.
Rory's been out in the field, so there has been no partaking in that which is the crossfit for him. He's gone all next week as well. Boo-hoo.
