Still Making Progress...in Alaska
Saturday, August 01, 2015 2 comments I'm a week into a 4-week stint in Alaska for work. Pretty cool to get a chance to be here (at least during the Summer), but I was afraid it would disrupt my training schedule. On the contrary, I actually have more time and freedom to workout; no... Read more
