A small injury and some very cold weather.

So tonight the temperatures are supposed to drop into the 20's!!!! Good news for us, now we only need mother nature to cooperate for another month! I had a small injury, just a 2 day thing. I was doing my monday workout and although i didn't notice it at the time i put by back into a pretty good spasm, but as im sitting here writing this it seems to be getting better quickly. I didnt miss any workouts so its no big deal, but these times are good opportunities to learn about my body and how to fix it when these things happen. 

On a side note I had some great pushes wednesday despite my pain. Im really focusing on finding a mental que that allows my biomechanics to happen naturally without thought, and I think i've found it. Im really excited to pound this into my head with repetition in the coming weeks before team trials. 

Saturday night we are having a nice bbq and bonfire at my parents with some vino from my cellar. Ill probably get into some barolos, super tuscans and maybe some Chateauneufs. Its always fun to have the team down and get out of the training center and the mindset that goes along with it. These crisp Adirondack nights are perfect for it!
