Every once in a while I get the urge to do either a WOD or my lifting or maybe both with no music at all. There’s something about it that makes it feel even better. Today’s lifts were performed that way and they felt great.

In the mid to late nineties someone my dad worked with raced at East Windsor Speedway in Jersey. We started going there on Friday nights and it was fun. Later we started going to Bridgeport too on Saturdays and eventually my dad got a car. He never did very well but he tried.

We have been hearing bald eagle in the evenings. We heard it again this morning. All we saw was this large bird on the railroad pole. Couldn’t ell if it’s Juvenile eagle or hawk because of the way it was perched.

It was really a surprising day for me today. I attempted my twenty rep back squats at 250 pounds the other day and aborted at one rep. Today after not sleeping super well due to alcohol I made the PR at the 250 pounds and they didn’t even feel that bad.

Having done my Crossfit Total a couple of days ago I took a couple of days off then reset my weights. It worked out perfect so that I was only lifting prettylight on days we wanted to get out geocaching.

Molly never has off on holidays but this time she did. We thought we’d go geocaching at Rocky Ridge Park in York County. We didn’t anticipate it being so busy.

We don’t get the chance to get out hiking and geocaching as much as we used to or would like to but today we did. We enjoyed a nice short hike at Governor Dick and found several caches including one we had a 6 year old DNF on.

Today was a nice day. Cooler and much less humid than it’s been in quite a while so I went for my Crossfit total. No PRs but it all felt good.

The NWS in Philadelphia has confirmed 7 tornadoes that came from Ida. It was just a few weeks ago they confirmed ten if I am remembering correctly.

Today my strength felt surprisingly great with my mind being focused on the weather. Everything felt great.
