Great gym morning!
There’s nothing like a great morning at the gym to start off the day. This morning did not disappoint either — between working out with Lennox focusing on pushing off the body to throw a right dig, straight right, left hook combination and watching everyone work through the heat and humidity of the gym to shake of the summer doldrums, the focus and energy seemed to shake everyone awake.
It’s as if everyone felt inspired by the work of everyone else too. Punches seemed a little bit crisper, body work a bit more dug in, and the sparring seemed more like dance than boxing. Even the mirror work felt fun with lots of talking and instruction through the rounds and a genuine feeling of camaraderie to add an extra something to everyone’s work out.
I started off with a slow and steady one mile run and then did my usual sweet 16, though I admit to flagging hard in my third round with Len. Still, I pulled it out and after allowing myself a round off, started to work the double-ended bag with renewed vigor especially went it came to doubling up the left hooks.
All I can say is count me lucky to have had such a great way to ease into the last weekend of summer.

Glad you had a good workout. I’ve found running a bit easier in the cooler weather. Love that!
Thanks. It felt great. Glad your running is getting easier with the turn towards Fall. Frankly, I can’t quite believe it’s almost here.
I know. Back to school on Tuesday. That’s just wrong!
Yep! Though I have to say, my daughter feels so sort of ready for it.
Aughhh! Don’t say “last weekend of summer”! Lalalalala I’m not listening! I swear, I ought to live in Texas. Do they have to go through winter down there?
I turn into a grouch once the temp drops below 60 and I have to stop wearing flip-flops.
Sorry for ruining everyone’s party. Is there any way you can block me from posting on all y’all’s blogs? You may want to go ahead and do some research on that.
Not a problem! You can be as grumpy as you want! I figure I’ll be in flops through October regardless of the temperature ;).
