Frisbee again. Played harder than last week and felt it- my groin is a bit touchy today, I likely won't play Wednesday, and maybe Friday. 4v4 with lots of scoring and turnovers. In the game to 5, my team kept turning it over right on the goal line between drops and bad throws. We were down 0-2, fought to 3-2, then gave up 3 straight and lost 5-3.

Busy, bad day at work (advice: Don't buy any GE stock... which means it will probably go up)- finally got away to the gym at 5:30. Planned to run a few miles and weightlift but felt terrible, sore, tired so stopped just a few minutes in and did a little elliptical, then back to work.

AM ran 1 mile, xt 2, then lift. Left work at lunch to head to a lake with the family for some paddleboarding. I sure got a workout pumping up 2 paddleboards then paddling around the lake. Definitely building some upper body muscle.
