Merry Christmas and the Daily Workout!!

We had a very mellow and relaxing Christmas. Late breakfast, later lunch, gift exchange and then a wonderful home cooked meal. I made out like a bandit with a GoRuck 80lbs. Training Sandbag with refillable bags, a new Aeropress Coffee Maker, a couple of great big bottle craft beers and a package of wonderful handcrafted hard salamis!! You can't do much better than that?! For those who are tired of the normal carols out there for Christmas.... here is my all time favorite, The Season's Upon Us by the Dropkick Murphys! Enjoy!
