Recap – I had a really great week exercise wise. Joining the local gym was the best investment in fitness I have made in a while. With my running so limited recently, I need to be working out in the gym or I am going to get enormous and out of shape.

Anyway, the take away from this week is I crush my goals rowing wise, and I think if I can manage my schedule properly, the holiday challenge shouldn’t be a problem. Check out the numbers below.
