We traveled home from VA this morning and despite being in the car for 4 hours I felt great.Easy run
LMLS and drills. 4 miles by feel with 6 x 30 second strides. SAM. I felt better on this run than I've felt in some time. It is a wonder what a little extra rest will do for your body.

Pandemonium volleyball
We were 2 - 0 winners again and were hardly challenged in either game. This was games 112 and 113 for me. I dove for short ball and dinged my left elbow up a little.
