I got my morning off to a good start by walking the Beast a couple of times with my first client, then I did a brisk hike/run on Lower Table Rock with the next client. I followed that with about 30 mins of chinups and ring pushups.

A Lot of Chores and a Little Heavy Bag
After a morning full of training, I spent the afternoon and evening trying to catch up on work and household chores......but I still made time for 30 mins on the heavy bag.

LTR Run and Heavy Bag
I took yesterday off from exercise, but tried to make up for it today with a great run on Lower Table Rock and 30 mins on the heavy bag. The trail going up LTR was in pretty good shape, but it was still rather muddy on the plateau......it was a fantastic run and mostly in the sun.

LTR, KBs and MBs
After taking care of some business earlier in the morning, I ran Lower Table Rock....the trail wasn't a creek today, but there was plenty of water and mud on the plateau. Afterward I had a great kettlebell and medicine ball workout in addition to the two 1/2 mile warmup/cooldown walks with clients.
