Hobart Bluff and Soda Mountain
Clista and I had a fantastic afternoon on the trails. We hiked up to Hobart Bluff (the Bonsai Gardens) and up to the Soda Mountain lookout. Great weather for it too!

Chest Workout and Heavy Bag
This afternoon I did a good workout of barbell bench presses, dumbbell bench press & flye supersets, upper body medicine ball plyos and steep angle decline pushups. The plan was to do some papaerwork and chores after that, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it so I spent 30 mins of quality time with my heavy bag instead.

Snatches and a Little More
Today I did a great workout of snatches, power snatches, power cleans, front squats, 1 arm kettlebell swings and pullups.....haven't done some of those exercises in quite awhile and it felt fantastic!

Table Rocks and Recovery
Today I did both Table Rocks again.....in order to help with the necessary recovery from doing the Punisher twice in 4 days, I only power hiked up, but I did run down both of them and ran across the LTR plateau. Lots of VRAs rounded out the day nicely.

The Punisher -- Again
Did the Punisher again this evening.....this time with a young man (15 yrs old) who is leaving the valley soon. I gotta say that he did awesome, but this old man was still able to show the young Irish lad how the Scottish do things (barely).

A Lighter Day
I kept things a little lighter today and started off by walking the Beast once followed by 30 mins on the heavy bag, walked Elmo twice, took a 1+ mile walk with Clista and threw in a few VRAs to make it an active, but not too intense day.
