Testing out the GPS feature on my iPhone...

Click here to see the track I rollerbladed as my warm-up before crossfit. It was my "short route," a quick jaunt I take that goes from one resting station to another and back. Going to the resting station is all uphill, so if you check my speed you'll see it's a lot faster on the way back ( Read more... )

Hello? Is thing on?

Anybody remember who I am? It's me: JP! I need to dust this thing off and get back to writing. I guess the main excuse of my absence is the notion of no news being good news.

I'm working. A lot. Nearly 80 hours this week alone. I also got a fairly significant pay raise. So I'm finally, after a year and eight months, back into ( Read more... )

I'm still a good bit sore from my gym accident two weeks ago. It's not the sharp, shooting pain it was for the first week after the injury.

I haven't been in a writing mood lately. Don't know why. Highlights:

My back is slowly getting better. It hurts in my left hip now.
I made 100%s on both psychology and chemistry exams over the past week

Yep. That's all ( Read more... )

I like Friday Fives that I actually think about a lot of the time anyway.

1. If you owned a restaurant, what kind of food would you serve?
I would have a pub/bar not unlike the one from the TV show "Cheers." There would be a huge selection of microbrews from around the country. The room would be identical to the one in "Cheers" -- central bar in ( Read more... )

I'm injured.

Yesterday's workout of the day was:
400m sprints
15 deadlifts at bodyweight (I did half bodyweight)
20 box jumps
25 jumping pull-ups.

Three reps of this whole workout

I did the first round A-Ok, though I hate running. I've never liked it, and everyone always says the same thing, "All it takes is a little practice, and you grow to ( Read more... )
