Black Forest Pleasures
I didn't do weights on Thursday... it became a rest day instead. I ran an hour on Friday and then on Saturday, cycled 120km to Freiburg through the black forest with some nice climbs, returned on a similar path on Sunday! In between, there was lots of good food with my family to celebrate my dad's birthday. 44 is a good age, he says... although that was many years ago for him!
Excitement on Monday with the Tour de Suisse ending in the neigboring village. Seeing Tom B, Jan U and others up close behind the finish line was a treat! I went lifting afterwards and then moved on to ice cream and Italian soccer. What a summer! It seems like life revolves around sports with the world championship! Tonight, all the girls from the company are going to see Switzerland play France. Not to mention that I am already wearing a red/white outfit here at work! I will run home afterwards. Not easy to get the passive and active workouts in!
