I have to say, this winter has been the hardest work...I mean extended physical activity work... I have done in my adult life. I have never been so disciplined in the gym as I have been in Nov, Dec, Jan and Feb.

This had *better* pay off, come the Woodland Games at the end of April.

I continue the speed and agility work through Friday March 12th. Then I have one week of throw and lift March 15 -19. I'm going to squat/row...dead/row... fast sumo deads/snatch/row MWF and throw T-TH. I should be totally crushed by the weekend.

We're gone on vacation from the 20th to the 24th. I'm going to hike, eat, sleep ten hours a night and sit in the hot tub for four days and recover. When we get back I start the general In-Season routine, which will be throw T-Th and lift on Friday, probably alternating fast squats and deads with their accompanying rowing/elliptical work and a general, light core series.

We shall see.
