AM 6 on the treadmill cause I didn't feel like running in the cold rain.

Lunch- 45 min yoga class. I've been very sore and tight lately, especially my lower back. I figured a bit of yoga could help. I'm the least flexible person in the room.

AM- 4.5 with Paul at exactly the same pace as my treadmill run yesterday, except we ran around neighborhoods

Lunch- 6v6 frisbee in perfect, 50 deg weather with a pretty strong breeze. My team had a speed advantage. We won 5-3.

One of the guys on my team today said he really needed a win today as he had been on a long losing streak. I hope I don't jinx myself, but I went and look and my team has won 13 straight (not counting one game where we played down a person)

AM 6 slow miles on GE trail. Around freezing temps. 3 deer, and 10 turkeys blocking my path with a half mile to go requiring minor reroute.

no run on account of being tired and sore

Lunch- 45 min yoga, then frisbee. Temps were nice, very breezy, 7v7. I played terribly, especially my passing. And my team could have used 1-2 more good throwers. They were doing a zone and we just didn't have the enough throwers to beat it. It was a 5-2 massacre, and it wasn't even that close. I got frustrated enough that I kicked a cone at one point. I haven't gotten that frustrated during frisbee for a while.
