The evening workout got postponed when we had to do a mini rescue of one of our co-workers this evening. She went on a planned 22 mile run that should have ended at at around 4:30pm. She called after taking a bit of wrong turn and ran 30 miles and was hoping to get a ride home. We hopped in a truck and drove 45 minutes one way up Reddington Pass. Fortunately, we found her just after dark and rolled back to do a quick workout.

Have a Great Day!!
It was a great day last time we did our chest workout. I have been training with a friend and co-worker that had set a goal in January to bench press 200 lbs. before the end of our spring season in May. He worked very hard all season, working out six days a week and the other day he was able to do his one repetition maximum at 200 lbs.!! It goes to show that when you set reasonable goals and train hard you can achieve! When we first started training together he struggled with a 135 lbs. bench press.
Today's quote is from Henry David Thoreau:
"What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals."
