I got up this morning a little before 9.  I checked my email and went to get a bowl of cereal before I lifted.  When I got to the cafe, I did not feel like eating, so I just got some water and Powerade and went to lift.

I went to the training room to get a massage after I lifted.  I got a little work done on my hamstrings and calves, since they were the sorest parts of my body.  I planned on coming back later to get my neck and shoulders.

After my massage I went to play golf with Dominic, Kerry Bowmans( Olympic alternate at 127 lbs) and Chris Young (OTC resident gymnast).  I was pretty much sore throughout the entire round.  I only played nine holes because my body was not feeling to good, but it was nice to get out for a while.

I had scheduled my second massage for 5:30 that evening so I had a little time to relax before then.  I got some food and came back to my room.  I had two phone interviews, Blue White Illustrated and Sports Illustrated, before I went to get my massage.  The interviews were good, and the massage was really helpful in loosening me up.  After my massage I got stretched out, which made me feel that much better.

The rest of he night was really laid back.  We had some serious thunder, lightning and hard rain tonight, so I really did not want to do leave my room, so I just chilled here.

This next cycle is going to be pretty tough.  I really needed this day off, now I can be ready to push hard through this next cycle.

One day closer....
