Where are the barrels??

Sunken Meadow

Went up to Sunken Meadow with Tommy for some hills and to get off the sand.

44:34 for a little under 6 miles.

Calves were on fire from the sand the past two days, felt good during the run and hurt a little after.

Wednesday

31 minutes. 3.5 miles in deep sand with Tommy.

Felt really good, calves are a little tight but OK.

Pray for surf..........

2's day

Just under 3 miles on the beach with Tommy. No time because I cant find my watch.

Felt good, real nice out.

Allergies getting a little better but still there.

A case of the mondays

25 minute run.

Felt good running, but allergies are killing me. I feel like garbage. Hopefully some sleep and vitamins will get me better soon.

Those waves this weekend just made me want to surf more.

Sick Waves on Saturday

Went surfing on saturday. Two 2hr. sessions in head high to 3 ft overhead surf.

So Fun, I really needed that.

Leftover chest high sets on Sunday. One 2hr. session

Wed-nes-day

30 minute night run.

Perfect temp. outside.

Felt really good.

Toosday

40 minute run from overcliff to old minnewaska with 2 adventures built in.

Very warm outside.

Felt like shit the first 20 and then real good afterwards. Swimming at split rock afterwards.

Injuries: Multiple scrapes on the lower legs and forearms.

Sunday

Felt like garbage for the whole day.

25 min e-run, felt good during the run.

Caves of Ice

Harry Ballzagna drove me, Tim, Alex, and Steph to Sam's Point Preserve, which has caves where ice forms, and stays for most of the summer months.

Felt very sluggish on the 15 minute run up to the caves, possibly due to the lack of sleep the night prior, and the fact that it was 9am and i had not ingested any food all morning.

Went into some dark caves, exploring, which is extremely fun. The Gunks are extremely interesting whether it comes to running, biking, or exploring, there are many rock formations and good views to be seen.

Harry and Tim decided they wanted to walk up ice stairs and risk getting hurt. Me, Alex, and Steph (the smart people in the group) thought it would be safer to walk back the way we came and did that. Walked back to the car the same route we came up.

Acquired a great rock sample to start off my collection.

Bodily Harm: Multiple scrapes on the underside of my left forearm about midway from my wrist to elbow. Caused by climbing on wet rocks and scraping on said rock.

Adventure Bicycle Riding

Rode up and over the mountains with Timotheus and Alexis. Got yelled at by 2 old guys, one being fat and having a broken leg. Being able to talk yourself out of getting yelled at pays off.

About 4 hours total time included a little swim at split rock, the turnaround point.

Only one injury from it, got a nice semi circular cut mark from the chainwheel.

Very fun, and acquired a sign during the ride.
