In Mile High City

Wednesday, August 20;

I made it here safely. I can't believe it's only Wednesday. Yesterday felt like the longest day in creation. Up at 6am, workout, shower, work, home, packing, airport, 3 hour flight to Denver, dinner, watch some Olympics, asleep by 11pm (denver time).. 1pm (eastern time). Note: I go to sleep at 10pm. This body needs to make sure it gets some good rest.

While I'm on the road, I basically do Marketing for C-SPAN. We talk about the network and our unfiltered, unedited coverage of politics and government. We have two big tour buses called the Campaign '08 Buses. Right now both are in Denver for the Democratic National Convention. It was pretty exciting when I fly into the airport. There was a big C-SPAN billboard in the Denver airport as I was walking to the baggage claim. I got excited, so I took a picture. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my cord, so I can't upload pictures until I get home.

Today, we are going to a Rotary club in Fort Collins, CO, which is north of Denver. We'll do a presentation to a whole bunch of rotarians. We're also doing another event at the Fort Collins city hall. After that wraps up, we'll head back to Denver. I'm planning on making it to Front Range Crossfit. I may be cutting it a little tight on time, but I think I'll just make it. I'm a little concerned about the altitude, but if Olympians can do it, I can do it to. Right?!

I'll let you know how tonight's workout goes. I'm still sore from Sunday and yesterday. My shoulders have that good muscle soreness and my lower back is tender from the modified deadlifts. I'm just hoping for no ring dips tonight.. please no ring dips!!!
