the f*#k you do

NOTE ABOUT MANDATORY COVID TESTING... will take place on Tuesday this week between 7:30-8:45 AM in the Tech Center; remember to write initials on vial!

Watched part II of the HBO documentary "TIGER", about golfer Tiger Woods, arguably the greatest golfer of all-time, and one of the greatest competitors of all-time in any sport.  I am a big believer in and huge fan of second chances and comebacks.  At 2019 Masters Tournament, after battling health and personal turmoil for a decade, Tiger is challenging for the win going into the final round.  Commentator remarks how many of the young current top golfers grew up idolizing Tiger Woods and dreamt of wanting to go head to head with Tiger Woods in the final round of a major tournament.  Commentator follows with "the f*#k you do...you have no idea what you are getting yourself into".

EASY DAY PACE REMINDER (Mon if run, Wed, Thu, Sat): rule of thumb, on easy days run no faster than 2' slower than current 5k race pace!

Daily - 5 minute mindfulness / breathing techniques
