Balance. It's what I strive for. It's what my body desires. This past weekend wasn't about balance at all haha.
I had drill this weekend, so I had to eat on base. At the food court, I opted for chicken strips, mashed potatoes with gravy, and a biscuit. Strike one. After work, I ended up heading out to a local Tavern who was having their 4 year celebration and had LOTS of rum and diet cokes. We're talking ounces up the wazoo. Strike 2. Then after recovering from the night before, I chowed down on a BLT and fries which then caused a massive carb overload and I dozed off for a good hour or two. Strike 3. Dinner, luckily, was tame. Had some lettuce wrapped burgers and some carne asada chili. Exercise wise I did nothing over the weekend. I feel like shit.
So today, despite this weird ass weather front coming in and giving Northern Cali some rain, if it's just some drizzle, I'm tearing up some trails on the bike. If it's muddy, so be it. If it's heavy rain? Ok, I'll concede and get my sweat on at home. But that's the only deterrent!
1.5 weeks until our nation's birthday, folks! I'm planning on camping in some redwoods and doing some crazy 17 mile mt bike loop. This badboy is 10 miles up and 7 miles back down. It's listed as strenuous (
grasshopper loop trail), but hey, why not challenge one's self right! So man oh man, am I looking forward to getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and heading up north to relax and be in nature!
Any fun plans for you?
