Okay, so it really more like day 25. But ones perception is their reality. The fact is the weather has been crap here the last two weeks and well…Pfffffffffffff!

Workout: Larry Mattenon Memorial Nature Trail 2.75 miles.

Time: Not that it matters but about 40min. It was just nice to get out of the house and go for a walk in the woods.

Notes and Observations: Bad mojo. I used to go walking out here with a girl I used to work with and she said the place freaked her out. But I once ate a M&M off the floor and that freaked her out so. The point is I never really got what she was talking about, until today. We had 250 acres of woods below our house as a kid, I grew up camping, hunting and fishing, I’m 200+ pounds and have frontal lobes. I’m very, very , comfortable being alone in the woods. It’s not that. Indian burial ground? Civil War battle ground? No idea but some bad mojo is floating around there.

My vertical leap is crap. But I’m pretty sure I set the record for the “Lateral Leap” if there is such a thing. Who knew all it took was a small red lizard moving very quickly off the trail and through some dead leaves! Cold blooded little bastard!

Passed 4 teenagers, they were about 13 or 14, two guys and two girls. The one girl was sort of tall and gangley, braces,not quite sure what to do with her curly red hair and when she talked it sounded like she was singing. Think the guy she was with has any idea what she is going to blossom into over the next 3 years? Think she will still be talking to him?

Also saw two drunk guys with fishing poles looking for the lake. Ummm, Its only one of the largest bodies of water in Jackson County.
