Pride Comes Before the Podcast
Monday- Hour Run. 45 Min Ride. The Body Core Circuit. This was a glorious way to get better on a day off of work. After the family visited, this was a good way to refocus again. Seems like the body is coming back around. Tuesday- Badger Workout in Moderation. Volleyball this Night. While in college... Continue Reading →
Here we go... another week of a real mixed bag of training. Let's get to it! Monday: 55 Minute Run. 9 Holes Golf. Ran a sweet state park (High Cliff) up in Appleton visiting sir Rowen Ellenberg. Golfed overly terrible. Very bad. Good experience around the High Cliff neighborhood though! Tuesday: Chiropractor Appointment and Fair... Continue Reading →

“Where does it all lead? What will become of us? These were our young questions, and young answers were revealed. It leads to each other.

One of the things that makes debut albums so interesting to me is that they provide a first impression, a firm starting point for a career, and when put into the context of an entire career are extremely informational and extra interesting in hindsight. Some artists will spend their first album or two wearing their... Continue Reading →
Monday (Memorial Day)- Nothing! Not a great start to a training log. A storm of some Corunna boys rolling into town the night before, in combination with a few drinks and catching up, lack of sleep, and UTC the day prior did not make this a very comfortable day. Honestly I think this was a... Continue Reading →
Just because an album is a debut does not mean that the people behind it are inexperienced. In the case of Lynyrd Skynyrd, as we will explore today, the 6 man band had been together for at least 5 years with the founding members having played together for as many as 9. Having written songs... Continue Reading →
