i saw my trainer today, and we started again where we had to stop a few weeks ago, because I wasn't functional. Back to the heavier weights and pushing the sled. It all felt really good.

Picking blueberries. Reaching up, ducking down, getting sweaty. Very aerobic.

Some tough moves today, and stuff we hadn't done before, e.g. man makers. I was feeling good. I talked with the doctor's office yesterday, and they have no idea why I was having multiple joint pains. No arthritis, no autoimmune, no Lyme. One inflammation marker was slightly elevated, but I'm good. I just don't want this to happen again, since we don't know what it was and why it went away.

A beautiful day, lower humidity and a nice breeze. We went to Mack Porter and walked through some of the ball fields, most of the woods loop, and back on the one-way road. We saw no other people or dogs enjoying the great weather.

Aerobic weeding. I weeded down the rows of Bob's corn, and it was a real mess. Lots of grass.

Abs day. Hard, but not too aerobic.

Training a new trainer at 9Round today. The CHOW was number of air hits with weights. I took it easy to not stress my shoulders, and did 188.

Restorative.

Motala at Gage Park, hosted by OK. Lots of fun, with some tricky controls, typical of Fritz. Since there were three loops, and all went through the playground area, it was important to check control codes. My only mistake, but a large one, was on the second control on the middle length course. I must have lost focus, and ended up at the third control on the long, and had to relocate. This probably cost me five minutes. My problem was on the middle course, and I was using my clue sheet, which didn't have the numbers for the middle and long. By the long, I got smart enough not to use the clue sheet, and instead rely on the clues on the map.
