Pretty middle of the road cardio this morning. Â Ran the corners pretty hard. Â It was bit humid, but cool and light. Â My weight workout was pretty good. Â I added several burnout set on the triceps exercise – really good burn. Â Since I won’t be going up to Kings Bay any more in coming months I will have to reconstitute the gym at home or figure out something local.
